Designs for Health 5-HTP 50mg with Vitamin B6 (P-5-P) - 5-HTP Synergy 50 mg Supplement - Serotonin Precursors to Help Support Healthy Mood + Appetite (90 Capsules)

This is my crutch! The stuff really clears up brain fog and gives you proper energy. Originally I was recommended to take 3 pills in the AM and 3 in the PM but since it's a bit expensive I cut it to just 3 pills in the morning. This still works just fine, although I do use CBD and a strategic dose of coffee to max focus and lower anxiety. If you add in some high quality DHA fish oils, everything in the brain seems to simply run smoother!The only negatives would be that I (personally) experience withdrawal like symptoms if I miss a dose, especially two. Other negative is that it is a bit expensive.Overall amazing and worth it! My recommendation for anyone struggling: get yourself an all around allergy panel, see what you might be sensitive or allergic to, and then get a stock of 5HTP, DHA fish or krill oil, Magnesium glycinate, CBD and good coffee. From here, other things fell into place for me! I sleep better, eat normal portions and no longer get bloated constantly. I feel happier, more confident and more productive and it all keeps cycling!

My naturopath suggested this for my numb emotional state that has come on after health problems caused a bunch of hormone deficiencies & presumably neurotransmitter deficiencies too. He says he takes one or two whenever he feels glum or tense and it cheers him up. I did not find that to be the case for me. But when I tried routinely taking one every 4h all day every day, I did see an increase in mood. Nothing super dramatic but I laugh more, and am less irritable, more confident.The cost of taking so many is not inconsiderable. So I decided to seek a cheaper alternative by finding two separate products, the 5-HTP and the B6, both from fairly decent companies, in dosages similar to this.I figured I would get the same benefits. I thought this just cost more for the convenience of both supplements in one tiny pill (and it IS convenient!). But I guess there is another reason this costs more. I don't know what, maybe fresher or more bioavailable?But the alternate stuff I bought did not work. I took it for a month and the whole time I was at odds with my spouse, feeling hurt or irritated by everything he did. I switched back to this and by the second day I was cheerier and calmer and we were getting along fine again.So I think it is worth splurging on the good stuff. I will be sticking with this product.

it helps with the stress of taking care of a loved one

I got this to improve my mood and honestly notice my headspace is more positive since taking this

Bought this to help with insomnia. I noticed an improvement the first night — took one capsule 90 minutes before bed and it did make me very sleepy. Slept for five hours straight that night. Second night, same thing. Last night was the third night — again, got very sleepy, fell asleep quickly, but then the dreams began.... three vivid, strange, and not terribly pleasant dreams which I can still remember. I guess that means I was at least getting into a much deeper sleep than usual, which is good — but in addition to the dreams, today I felt like I was in some kind of dissociative state all day, like I wasn’t “in the moment” and my mind and body weren’t “connected”. As I’ve done nothing different in my routine except for the addition of the 5-HTP, that’s all I can attribute it to. I may cut back to using it every other night and see if the weirdness abates, while still allowing me to sleep...

I used a product like this in college about 15 years ago. Recently I've been having trouble sleeping again and decided to get some more. On review, I found this synergy blend that I thought would be more helpful. I only have to take one pill a half an hour before bedtime and I'm out like a light and gone for the count. I can stay asleep through the night but I can also wake up when my alarm goes off or when my child needs me. And that is a huge plus!

I love Designs for Health brand. This product is helping just as it should. Stress and better sleep we’re the goals. It seems to be helping.

So I started taking this for very bad nerves due to TSW. Nothing else helps me. NOTHING! I used to take this years ago for anxiety, prescribed by my Nathropathic doctor. I didn’t need it anymore until now. I’ve been taking it for 12 days. I noticed it started working on day 11. It took that long for me to really get it in my system. I will keep taking it also, because I noticed my appetite is a lot smaller. It’s a huge plus, because I’m trying to lose weight.
