I have started 5-htp at the advise of whole foods. I have suffered from bulimia and depression for years. Its amazing the results. I am the happiest i have ever been and my over eating and mindless eating is non existent. I HIGHLY recommend!

Hi Amanda,

Thanks for checking in with us and letting us know how well 5 HTP is working for you. Congratulations. However, remember that long term use is not recommended. You may want to talk with your doctor and see what he recommends.

I have been taking 5 HTP for about a month or so and have noticed my insomnia decreasing. There are relatively few side effects. Out of 45 days I've taken it, I may have had 3 bad dreams. Also, it works excellent for appetite control, but you have to take it on an empty stomach in the AM. This makes me a wee bit more tired in the AM but if you drink an extra cup or so of tea it is fine.

I take 100 mg for insomnia and 50 mg for appetite control.

My over eating is almost non existent since I began taking it.

Excellent product would recommend.

I will tell you now I have taken this product for almost one year. This as well as my malic acid has taken ALL OF MY FIBRIMIAGA PAIN away. I have suffered with pain for well over 10 yrs. I have lost weight, have more energy my mucles are not in pain and I have my life back. My insomnia is GONE!!!! Please note it did take 2-3 months for me to notice a HUGE difference. I weigh 160 pounds. I am 5' 6" and started off for the first 1-2 months taking 250mg a day Now I just 50 -100mg depending on how much stress my body has or how I feel. (keep in mind I live in Florida so every now and then when those bad storms come I might still feel some aches) BUT NOTHING LIKE I AM USE TOO!!! WOO HOO !!!!!

Hi Kim,

I love using this supplement 5-HTP. I have used it for a couple years religiously and it is true (from experience) that you take in much fewer calories subconciously because it does make you "feel" fuller. I would recommend this for weight-loss AND for the mood enhancer it has reversed my negativity and depression as well!
