Can't complain May 11, 2011
By Robert Contreras
"NetNerd"
Typically if you're looking at 5HTP you already know why you may want it. If not, I'll explain briefly what it is. 5HTP is the chemical precursor to the neurotransmitter serotonin. Serotonin has a wide number of affects in the brain including mood, sleep and appetite. A normal human body produces sufficient amounts of 5HTP from food, which is then converted into serotonin. Some people, or people in some situations may find themselves with lower then normal levels of serotonin. (People with depression often have sub normal levels of serotonin for example.) 5HTP supplements are derived from a plant and when taken with food and/or before bed increase your serotonin levels. Have you ever just had a bad day or didn't feel very happy or positive? Taking two of these before bed often improves my mood significantly the next day, with no side effects. It is important to note that it works best with food, although it doesn't happen to me some people feel nauseous if they take 5HTP on an empty stomach. I just recently purchased these Natrol ones, and I like that the quantity for the price is much better than when purchased at your local pharmacy, and the caps are 100mg, so you can take smaller amounts than many of the 200mg caps that are available. Overall very pleased with these.

a better night's sleep Jul 22, 2009
By Gunner Natrol 5-HTP
Natrol 5-HTP
I have found that I sleep best when I take one of these, i.e. 100 mg. Please be advised that 5-HTP can cause very vivid dreams which might be disturbing to some people. I don't mind them given the trade off, a better night's sleep
Recommended for people who want an alternative to a prescription sleeping pill.
NOW has a new product with L-Tyrosine that you might want to try. See 5-HTP with L-Tyrosine (200mg) 60 vcaps

Great mood enhancer! Apr 27, 2009
By S. Schmidt Great product for when you're just feeling a bit down in the dumps! It's not a huge jack you up type of enhancer... Just enough to bring your head up, and help keep things positive.

Great for appetite control and mild anxiety relief. Jan 07, 2012
By Testing_Reality I love this product. I've had long-term problems with anxiety, but whenever I have taken Rx meds it always seems like overkill. It feels like I'm right on the border with needing a perscription, so 5-HTP has been a perfect fix. Its expensive in the stores but if you buy it in bulk here on Amazon its a lot cheaper, roughly the same as I would pay for a perscription co-pay. I feel much less anxious when I'm taking this (I take 100mg twice a day, not the time release kind) and just generally feel more patient and happier, but to a smaller degree than perscription medication, which I felt was too strong for me.
Also, when I first started taking it I was SHOCKED to find that I had basically NO appetite at all. After about 2-3 days of when I started to take the 5-HTP I started to notice that I wasn't snacking or craving any sweet or fatty foods like I usually do. I didn't know that appetite suppression was an effect of this drug so it was a very nice surprise. (a psychologist had recommended it to me as something that would help my anxiety) I've been struggling with my weight for a long time and have lost 15 pounds since I began taking 5-HTP a couple of months ago.
The only side effect: when I take it on an empty stomach I get a little queasy, which is easily fixed by taking with a snack or at mealtimes. I have not noticed any other side effects, which is very impressive! You can't even find a perscription anxiolytic that can claim that!

Just as good Aug 25, 2011
By Jack Kniate I have been taking this for almost a year and I feel it does just as good of job as a main stream anti depressant drug.
