PRO TryptoZen™

Clinical Studies Results 
Stress is classified as anything (good or bad) that disrupts the body’s mental, physical or emotional balance. Stress is a normal part of life; but, when it becomes constant or acute, it can have serious side effects. When stress occurs, the body initiates a number of standard bio-chemical responses to cope with the “emergency” (known as the fight or flight syndrome) – adrenaline and cortisol are produced, heart rate, blood pressure and respiration increase, and hormone levels rise. Remaining in a state of constant stress may weaken the cardiovascular and immune system setting the stage for serious illness.

The safety and efficacy of the milk peptide found in PRO TryptoZen is supported with double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical studies on both animals and humans, demonstrating the pharmacological anxiolytic (anti-anxiety) effects. It has been shown to be as effective as
benzodiazepines, such as Diazepam (Valium®), Xanax, or Restoril, and has shown superior effects when compared to Kava Kava and St. John’s Wort

And the best part is, unlike benzodiazepines, the milk peptide in PRO TryptoZen showed no dependence or memory loss.


Effect on blood pressure
When measured in the Stroop and Cold Pressor tests, Systolic (SPB) and diastolic (DPB) blood pressure was significantly lower (SBP as much as 32% and DBP as much as 24%) in the milk peptide group.

In addition, when presented with a stressful situation, the heart rates of subjects in the control group increased whereas heart rates in the milk peptide group remained the same.

Effect on cortisol levels
Cortisol causes the heart rate to speed up, blood pressure to soar, and the immune system to slow down. Despite serious stress, subjects treated with the milk peptide showed significantly decreased levels of urinary and plasmatic cortisol concentrations, while that of the control subjects remained stable.

Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), a normal product of the anterior pituitary and controller of the secretion of cortisol, is another indicator of stress. During stress tests, blood ACTH levels increased in the control group but not in the milk peptide group.

PRO TryptoZen™
is now available to medical professionals exclusively from PRO Symbiotics. This natural milk peptide provides a nonaddictive way to combat stress, anxiety, and sleeplessness for your patients, and also controls elevated blood pressure and cortisol levels without side effects, drug interaction, or drug buildup. In summary, the study shows that over a 2-week period the milk peptide group experienced an overall feeling of less stress compared to the placebo group.
