It’s having all the food that makes one sleepy.
The massive quantity of food, not the tryptophan, that makes you tired.
Isn’t tryptophan the planet Superman came from?
We need to stop using this myth. Tryptophan will no more make you sleepy than a cup of coffee.
Pure myth. Tryptophan doesn’t make you sleepy, overeating does. (And, if your family is like mine, arguing with the crazy relatives definitely contributes to the need for a nap!)
and cat food….
