electracat, from there I just googled terms like "Melatonin Gerd" which brought up hours of reading. In the first study I posted, it was 6mg of melatonin and 200mg of Tryptophan used. Because it...
electracat, I just randomly came across a study, bit of a read: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16948779?dopt=Abstract "The prevalence of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is increasing....
electracat, I'm using the NOW brand, they are GMP certified so can trust what they claim is actually in the bottle, unfortunately that's not always the case with uncertified brands, or so I've heard....
Update: Still doing great, dropped the head of my bed down flat 2 days ago, as I had it raised 8 inches to help against night reflux. Happy to have it flat as I think it was the cause of my morning...

DBwithUC Note how I didnt put "the" in front of "cause", that was deliberate. I'll try to be more clear with my titles to avoid offense, I'm really not here for any sort of conflict with people....
