Cows’ Milk Taken At Night Found To Have Sedative Effects On Mice.

The reason suggested is that milk collected at night had 24% more tryptophan and about ten times as much melatonin as milk collected during the day. http://www.wsj.com/articles/got-night-milk-a-possible-treatment-for-anxiety-insomnia-1449503741
