Natrol 5-HTP 200 mg, Time Release, Support a Balanced Mood, Dietary Supplement Provides Serotonin Production Throughout The Day, 30 Tablets, Up to a 30 Day Supply

I have had periods of insomnia for years. (Who hasn't had occasionally) Lately, my stress and anxiety levels had shot way up. Insomnia was worsening. My average nights' sleep was fewer than 3 hours per night. I tried all the usual ways: meditation. Melatonin to sleep. Nothing worked. If got so bad I was unable to drive or even manage the minimum activities of daily living. I lived in my pajamas. Then I told my son. He recommended I try 5-HTP for the anxiety, stress. He said it could even help insomnia. By the time I tried this, I was suffering stress angina every day. I hadn't had an angina attack in several years. I started by taking one tablet per day. Barely helped. I took one and one-half tablet per day. Helped, but not enough. I did research and found studies said for anxiety, can take up to 400 mg. I then started taking 2 tablets per day. Success. I just awoke, having slept for over 6 hours. I have been driving again. My anxiety is greatly lessened. My angina, also. PLEASE NOTE: I do not in any way, shape or form recommend taking 5HTP for angina. Mine is stress angina. I still plan to see my physician about it. I have been charting symptoms. With ObamaCare still in effect, for now, I cannot afford doctors as I once did.In summary, I like this Natrol 5-HTP Time Release tablet. Top layer dissolves right away. Then, it keeps a steady level in your system throughout the day. It has greatly helped my insomnia, my anxiety, my stress. Even helped the depression I wasn't aware I had, in light of the other symptoms I am on the mend.

Have been taking this for over one month , I'm noticing a definite improvement in my mood , it seems the negative thoughts don't take root in my head any more like they used to - before taking the 5 htp some ugly thought , or some silly comment made from someone would set up in my head and would not leave . I knew this was not how I wanted to be but could not stop feeling this way, I knew living like this was affecting my life and the ones I loved . I have been on antidepressants before and have stopped because of some side effect that would manifest sooner or later . I hated the idea of being on them - never had any real relief anyways . I also would look up self help articles on the web , books , anything I thought would help with this problem I've been living with for most of my life . Then I came across information on the internet about 5 htp , decided to give it a shot - it's one of the best things I've ever done for myself , and I hope others suffering in the same way find the same relief I have had with this product . The best advice I can give is get on the internet and do your own research on symptoms of low serotonin levels . Read other people's experience using 5 htp , start with the lowest dosage and go from there . I figured out that for me it was best to take it late in the evening , right after supper or even a couple hours after supper was o.k. Mornings was not a good time because I felt it kind of made me feel edgy . The good results really started kicking in about three weeks taking this product , I am amazed at the peace of mind I have now , it's so good to go about my day and not have some horrible negative thought take over my mind completely. I also feel this has had other beneficial benefits to my general well being and health but I want wait a little longer to see if the improvement is consistent in those areas. I will try to post future updates on my experience using 5htp.

I have (or used to have) my depressing days before this. I've had it for weeks now. And I am so relieved that it does what it says. No more depressing thoughts or feelings. Every once in a while I will get moody but they are very rare now. It came fast to me since I do have AmazonPrime. No this isn't sponsored, or given to me for free in exchange for a review. I bought this with my own money in hope to feel like a normal happy being. You know how you go through countless of reviews on hopes that they are true and you finally found a good product for whatever you want it to work for? Well this is it. I want you guys to know that my review is genuine it really is. There is no ulterior motive whatsoever. I will be buying again it just works so good for me especially with that price. I also recommend working out in the mornings for a even more healthy satisfactional happy day. It has been proven scientifically that working out makes you happy 😊 and yes yoga and Pilates is in that. Also have green tea it helps me relax and feel soothed. Ok so this product arrived in perfect conditions. Very well sealed in its box. Also the bottle was well sealed stuffed with cotton on the inside and the lid was in its place so you don't have to worry about tampering. The instructions to taking this product is one pill per day at nighttime before you go to bed after having had dinner or something to eat. You swallow the pill with water drink 6 to 8 ounces of water. That's it nothing complicated. And one pill is enough for me because it does work. My appetite still feels the same I mean these kind of anti depressant pills have a bad reputation for making someone gain weight but I'm not exactly stuffing my face in 5 cinnamon rolls. I still take care of myself and everything. If it work for me I would definitely recommend you to go ahead and try it. You have absolutely nothing to lose except for another day being depressed.
