Re: 5 HTP , mmmmmmmmm
Thank you so much for this thread Mirry.
I started taking 5 htp 2 weeks ago and its definitely working for me. My mood has lifted and I now get up in the morning feeling fine, whereas before starting the 5 htp I used to feel full of dread at the day ahead. I read that continual stress and anxiety lowers serotonin and believe me there is always stress in this house! I tried sjw before which did nothing for me, but the 5 htp works.Im taking 50mg at 8am along with a b6 vitamin and 50mg at 3pm.Apparently b6 helps in the conversion to serotonin. Lastnight I also took another 50mg an hour before bed and had a good nights sleep. Ive had no side effects either which is great.
Mine are from agestop on the internet.They were £9 something for 90 capsules and postage is free.I'll definitely be getting more.
If I'd not read this thread then I would never have tried 5 htp, so thank you again and thank you to nmp for this wonderful site.
