    Hey Patrick,

    You talk about taking l-dopa or mucuna to raise your dopamine levels to improve sleep.
    It isn’t strange this doesn’t work, because the Tyrosine – Dopa – Dopamine – Noradrenaline – Adrenaline pathway concerns only stimulatory and activating neurotransmitters.
    This can help for energy and focus, when taken in the morning.

    If you want to improve sleep quality, I would suggest you try tryptophan. In the body this converts to 5-htp, then to serotonin and melatonin.
    Serotonin can help to relax.
    Melatonin induces sleep.

    Most animal proteins contain tryptophan.
    I eat more than 1 gram of protein per pound of bodyweight and take betaine-HCl and protease enzymes with meals, but still experience improvement in sleep quality after I take l-tryptophan 1 hour before bed.

    It’s also possible to take 5-htp as a supplement, which has a stronger, more direct effect, but may lead to tolerance after a while of daily usage.

    Sublingual melatonin is quite effective to induce sleep as well.

    Both with tryptophan and melatonin I notice deeper sleep, more dreams at night and feel more rested in the morning.

    Sincerely,
    Evert van Tilborg
