Sleep Aid Effectiveness

Mood Improvement

Customers report significant improvement in their mood and overall well-being after taking this supplement, with some mentioning it helps decrease stress and anxiety, leading to better sleep and increased stability. Some users have compared it to the effects of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) but without the side effects. However, a medical disclaimer is necessary as 5-HTP may interact with certain medications including SSRIs.

Deep Sleep Enhancement

Customers report positive experiences with Thorne Research 5-HTP for enhancing deep sleep, resulting in increased duration and improved energy levels during the day. Some users have experienced significant improvement in their sleep quality since starting the supplement. However, it's important to note that 5-HTP is not a sleeping aid but rather an assistant for better sleep without causing morning drowsiness or side effects.

Quality


High quality,takes about a week to notice a difference.


High quality and very effective for me.


The body creates serotonin (a neurotransmitter) from tryptophan, found in turkey, eggs, soybeans, dairy products, and seeds and nuts.


Low behold the first night i got over two hours of deep sleep.

Price


They are certainly not cheap, but they are worth what you pay for.


I simply cannot say enough about this relatively expensive product - i think i’ll stick with it.

Competitiveness


We've switched to their brand on a number of products, and been pleased with results.


Have used various brands over the years and thorne is by far the best.


I have tried another brand of 5 htp in the past and had a horrible reaction.


I have taken 5-htp by many other manufacturers and nothing compares to thorne's product.

    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Ive been taking 5htp since i got down to about 25mg of cymbalta


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    There is no way i would ever make it through the taper without taking this 5htp


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Not all 5htp brands are equal


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Cymbalta is an snri the 5htp only boosts serotonin and not norepinephrine just a side note on the off chance that someone reading this is tapering off an snri but still i cant emphasize enough how much it has helped me


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    There are other supplements one can take to help with norepinephrine


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I havent found one that works for me yet but everyone is different
