I really do think the ingredients of these two products are valid.

What I take issue with is that the label does not inform the consumer as to the amount of each ingredient to be consumed.

They hide behind "proprietary mixture"... which is allowed on labeling by the FDA. But you do not know how much you really are getting of anything in that mixture.

5HTP IMO is almost a drug, in its actions. One step away from serotonin itself. People who consume it should be able to know how much they are taking.
For TravaCor:

Therapeutic amounts of taurine range in the 1000mg area.
Theanine 100mg/dose
5-HTP 50mg or 100mg
N-acetyl Cysteine 600mg minimum
You can see this adds up to more than 900mg total in that mix.
