I've been using 5-htp for a while and I usually by it at stores in a bottle of 100mg per cap. I take 1 cap at night on an empty stomach. It is important to do so and more important not to eat anything with calcium with it other wise you wouldn't get the effect. I bought this product in BN a while ago and I am about to finish it and I will buy another one today. there is no difference whether you buy it in caps or in powder, both worked for me. with this product I started taking more though. I use a 1/8 spoon. and I take half of it at night before bed and the other half in the morning when I wake up and half an hour before breakfast. This shit works. I have an anxiety problem and when I take 5-htp I don't get anxiety that bad and I feel better. 5htp is my anti depression med. I won't use any other stuff since I have no side effects with it. |
