Ozempic and drugs like it have done wonders for weight loss by mimicking the natural hormone GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1), ...

Indole, and structures derived from it, are a component of many natural substances, such as the amino acid tryptophan. A new catalytic reaction produces cyclopenta[b]indoles -- frameworks made of ...

In vivo studies have shown that indole-3-acetic acid is derived from tryptophan by at least two pathways. Tryptophan may undergo transamination to indolepyruvic acid, which in turn is degraded to ...

Indoles abound in bioactive molecules. They make up the molecular core of the essential amino acid tryptophan, the sleep-inducing supplement melatonin, and the psychedelic compound psilocybin.

When choosing a supplement, look for third-party-tested products and consult a healthcare provider, a registered dietitian nutritionist (RD or RDN), or a pharmacist. Some research indicates DIM ...
