Customer Reviews of 5-HTP
Customer Review: 5-HTP and Melatonin ought to be talked about together.
Summary: 5 Stars
5-HTP
5-HTP and Melatonin ought to be talked about together. First, let me say that I am not a medical doctor and I don't play one on TV. I have read a great deal about this subject, however.
5-HTP is a precursor to serotonin and can transfer across the blood brain barrier easily. Melatonin is a downstream product of Serotonin, i.e it is made from Serotonin. So, if you take 5-HTP and Melatonin together, it's like filling up a bucket by pouring water into it and patching a leak in it at the same time.
You'll sleep better and if you are mildly depressed it will help. If you are more than mildly depressed you might want to go to a medical doctor and have your thyroid checked out for hypothyroidism.
It takes about a week for the 5-HTP to build up in your body,if you're not better after 5-7 days you might want to increase the dosage.
Melatonin is best taken sublingually,put it under your tongue and let it melt so that it is absorbed through the mouth.

Description of 5-HTP
VEGETARIAN Griffonia simplicifolia is an African plant which is extracted to produce 5-HTP, the intermediate metabolite between the amino acid L-tryptophan and serotonin.5-HTP is a metabolite of the amino acid tryptophan. You may know tryptophan as the agent in turkey that makes you feel like taking a nap after Thanksgiving dinner (in addition to a full belly). 5-HTP is a direct precursor of the important inhibitory neurotransmitter serotonin, which is secreted in response to mood or emotion swings. Serotonin soothes and calms and brings about feelings of contentment.Herbal Supplements
