Re: [RC] [RC] ? ultium and other high tech feeds - Dbeverly4

I found the following on the website.  I'm wondering about the ingredients...is L-tryptophan a calming thing?  Is it a "drug"?  Sounds *illegal* to me for some reason.....Anybody know?  Susan, if you're not too busy DVMing, could you take a look?  Thanks!  :)
