It’s essential?

We have essential amino acids (the building blocks of our proteins) meaning we can’t make them in our body. So we need to eat them!

Tryptophan is used to produce serotonin, melatonin to regulate our circadian rhythms, and vitamin B3 also known as niacin.

Eggs contain tryptophan!

End of semester is approaching 🤪

If you are taking classes then STUDY UP AND DONT GIVE UP

If you have experiments to run MAKE SURE YOU PLAN WELL SO THEY RUN WELL

For me and my fellow professors MAKE YOUR LAST FEW LECTURES AND SUPPORT YOUR STUDENTS (I have 6 more to make 😭)
