  • 5-HTP 200 mg Now Foods: Another Great Find on Amazon
Size: 120 Count (Pack of 1)
If you’ve been looking for a natural mood booster, the 5-HTP 200 mg Now Foods 120 VCaps are definitely worth considering. I came across this Amazon find, and it’s been a great addition to my supplement routine. I’ve been taking it for a while now, and I’ve noticed a nice improvement in my mood and overall sense of well-being. The 200 mg dosage is perfect for me, and I love that the bottle comes with 120 capsules, so it lasts for a good while. 5-HTP is known for supporting serotonin levels, which helps with mood regulation, and I’ve felt the difference in my energy and emotional balance. If you’re in the market for a reliable, affordable 5-HTP supplement, I highly recommend checking out Now Foods on Amazon. It’s a great value for the price, and I’m definitely sticking with it! ... show more

  • Good stuff!
Size: 120 Count (Pack of 1)
NOW Foods GABA, L-Tryptophan, 5-HTP, Taurine, I take all of these daily now. Enhances my overall mood, attitude, outlook on life, and energy levels. I simply feel better taking these supplements. Helps me through the depressing winter months. For myself, I find that these are best taken on an empty stomach with a cup of coffee in the morning, and then I won't eat for an hour afterwards. Then I might take again at around 6 PM, as I typically don't eat dinner until 8 PM. Good stuff, good quality. Repeat customer. ... show more

  • Makes me not go crazy
Size: 120 Count (Pack of 1)
This added to my normal antidepressant really helps even me out. Or maybe it’s just placebo. Either way I’ll keep taking them. I don’t notice any of the other things like added focus or appetite suppressant, but that’s not why I use it.

  • Great Supplement and Brand
Size: 60 Count (Pack of 1)
I love 5-htp by the now brand. I have been taking this for about 6 months now at nighttime. It helps me with relaxation and calming my nervous system. I notice a difference in my mood when I don't take it. I feel my thoughts are calmer too. Of course, do your research and find out the right stack for your mental health but this is something that really helps me. I recommend this product. ... show more

  • Thank You, Jesus!
Size: 120 Count (Pack of 1)
After 10 yrs of trying to help my daughter stay away from px meds & navigating a path of holistic treatment for anxiety/depression, Im singing hallejuah!! She is several months in, with 1 in the morn & 1 at night, & she is so impressed! Bye bye depression! You know the struggle of trying multiple supplements, different concoctions, cleanses, self care tips, etc...only to feel like depression may be the cross you'll have to bare for the rest of your life.. Let me tell you, this 5HTP is a miracle! She has had no side effects! I told her, if needed, she could take one around lunch and she hasnt needed to at all! I want to be clear we have a vitamin protocol. I dont want to give any false hopes, that this is a one & done...she takes cbd gummies, lithium oratate, ltheanine, pan acid...and i would be nervous removing any one of these from her daily supplements BUT the 5 HTP is what kicked the depression out with incredible results! We will be lifers with this company & this product! Blessings to anyone reading who is struggling with depression right now...give this 5HTP a try & never stop praying for total healing! ... show more
