    Very good

    I had bad experience with Now Valeriane root, so I was afraid to buy Now 5-htp. Maybe that reaction was to herb Valeriane generally, and it wasn't Now's issue, I really don't know. Now I'm so happy, that I purchased this 5-htp. Really good. Sometimes I can take 2 caps (50 mg) a day, or 1 caps of 5- htp and 1 caps of Tyrosine Now. It improves my mood (maybe, of course, this is placebo effect, but I feel differences). :)

    This improves my mood

    This works in improving my mood. I don't take this one every day, but the days I do take it, I notice a big difference. It's kind of like this nice slight uplifting calm. Works for minor depression. I've tested out different times to take this and for me when I wake up an hour to early in the morning I'll usually take this. It helps me drift back to sleep or relax in bed a bit longer, then when my eyes open an hour later, I feel incredibly happy and ready to seize the day. I will also take it an hour before eating or an hour after at least. Seems to be more noticeably effective when I haven't eaten. The only side effect I've noticed is it may decrease sex drive a bit. I'll usually take something for that if I'm going to...you know. Or I won't take this. Many anti-depressants whether prescribed or not seem to affect sex drive for some bizarre reason unfortunately.If you're taking anti-depressants, you shouldn't take this though as it basically does the same thing. And if you take it together it could increase your chances for side effects. Too much serotonin. Choose one or the other. This is good to try if you're looking for an alternative to prescribed medication.

    Extremely Effective

    I began using this product simultaneously with Biotech Nutritions Dopa Mucuna. I take 100mg in the morning to hit peak blood level, then maintain with another 50mg at 1:30pm, 5:30pm and 8:30pm. Arrived at dosing schedule after researching 5-HTP metabolic action, half-life etc. Results were outstanding almost from the first day. Much lighter state of mind, much lighter mood. Like a heavy blanket being lifted. Also a natural-feeling calmness, not like being doped or numbed. It has been many weeks now and the positive effects have not faded. Everyone's internal chemistry is different, but for me this product has brought a huge improvement in quality of mental and emotional life.
