Isn't that a different site though? And a different product? Dee

Interesting they mention "(such as the outbreak of severe illness caused
by a similar "natural" substance, tryptophan, once sold as a sleeping
pill). " without mentioning that the tryptophan involved in that
"outbreak" was contaminated and the problems were not due at all to the
tryptophan itself but to the contaminant toxin.
Given that, I think the likelyhood this whole article is slanted,
biased, and possibly has other important omissions or misleading
statements is high. Doesn't mean every statement therein is inaccurate,
but it sure casts doubt.
