BRI Nutrition 5-HTP 100mg Supplement | 120 Vegetable Cellulose Capsules

LB: I take this an hour before bed to help with my depression and insomnia. I take it with ashwagandha and the combination works to help my depression and anxiety. The 5-HTP alone helps me sleep better, and makes happier. It seems to lift my mood in a positive way but works best for me with ashwagandha. The truth is you need to understand there are lots of reasons for depression, including hormone imbalances, unhealthy sleep habits, lack of exercise, poor nutrition, etc. But if you find the source of your problem and you change it, this will definitely help with the symptoms of depression and anxiety. I took everything the doctor could prescribe, SSRIs, SNRIs, benzos, seizure medicines, anti-psychotics, etc. and nothing really helped me, some did but had too many side effects. This helps me feel natural, and I don't have to worry about my long-term health. To cure your depression ask yourself what are you doing to better your life, and the lives of everyone around you? Is your life in order, is your home clean? Can you run a mile? Two miles? How many push-ups can you do? What is yoga?

Ajackson: I do not normally write reviews for a lot I purchase through amazon but this one I just felt I had to take a minute to write. I have been on xanax and Ativan for anxiety for the last 2 years going through a rough time and have suffered a huge amount of depression as well. For me it was literally one night after I took my first dose of 5-htp that I woke up feeling like I could take over the world! I felt amazing and I actually got over 6 hours of sleep which I haven't done in 2 years. I kept waiting the whole next day to feel a crash but it never came...it's been a week and I feel happy, calm and stable for the first time...in a long long time. I started taking a few melatonin gummies along with the 5-htp right before bed and the combo allows me to sleep a straight 6-7 hours and I feel like a whole new me...my mood is just amazingly better and uplifted. My neighbor couldn't believe how it was helping me so they tried some and woke up feeling really good. Over the last few days I have told everyone I know about this and those closest to me can't believe how it's really helped me this past week... they are calling it my happy pill :) This stuff is truly a amazing...

Kaylynn: Does this product work? Yes, I strongly believe it does. I was actually quite skeptical about this product at first. I was searching for a supplement that could control my depression and anxiety, and I had heard from other customers, as well as a few friends of mine, that 5-HTP was excellent at lessening the intensity of depression without the side-effects that come from taking a prescription. After many weeks of research, I happened upon BRI Nutrition 5-HTP.

When I received my first bottle I was more than excited to try it out. I followed the instructions by taking one capsule before bed with a fairly generous cup of water. The effects the following morning were sub-par at best. I was ecstatic by the fact that the bottle would last me one hundred and twenty days, but I was not satisfied with the results. At first, I figured that the product needed time to work, and so I continued to take one capsule each night before heading online to read some reviews. While reading reviews, I learned that most depression sufferers take 300mg, which is three of these 5-HTP capsules (which is only forty days worth of pills). Upon upping my dosage, everything became night...

CarolynK: Our Dr. recommended this product for my husband who has been suffering with extreme IBS-D for the 8 past months. He's been on a pretty strict FODMAP diet to help with the diarhea and we've seen significant improvement but he continues to lose weight and have bowel cramps 3-4 times per week. 5-HTP has helped with some of his night wakings and taken him from 3 potty breaks per night to only 1. It's not quite the immediate miracle happy pill we were hoping but it definitely has helped. There's so many factors that could be effecting his IBS that it's hard to tell what's helping and what's hindingering (sleep, stress, diet, weather, etc.) I'm tempted to try out this product to see if it will help some of my hypothyroid mood swings. We'll report back if we notice any more changes worth reporting!
