Love it
Best 5-HTP 100mg by Doctor's Best works amazingly well to ease anxiety and depression. It can make you feel sleepy so make sure to use it at night and if you use it during the day just make sure to have tea or something to energize you if you need that. Otherwise this is a must have if you are needing something and don't want to go on Prozac or something like that. I would take this along with Taurine and perhaps holy basil. But you don't need those other things, it's just helpful. This works great all on its own.
Pros
-
It works for anxiety and depression really well.
Cons
-
Makes you a bit sleepy so take at night.

Helps with sleep
I found Best 5-HTP 100 mg by Doctor's Best effective when I was experiencing low mood and difficulty falling asleep. I have heard that 5-HTP can be a little hard on your liver, so if you have any concerns with that, you may want to consult your doctor before using.

Just Wow!!
I have never felt so at peace with myself in all my life. I have suffered with depression for so long and after getting off meds but still experiencing occasional sadness and near-crippling anxiety, I worried that there was nothing for someone like me. Wow. I feel motivated now. I feel comfortable in my own skin. My excessive appetite has actually decreased (something I really didn't expect to happen at all). Insomnia was another thing I struggled with but now it is so easy to just calmly lay down and rest deeply. My eyelids used to twitch due to lack of proper sleep and I can happily say that that is now all gone. This is amazing. I am so thankful for Best 5-HTP 100 mg by Doctor's Best.
Pros
-
Can take without food, small pill, no odor, starts working in as soon as 30 minutes, great price for quantity, and vegan friendly.
Cons
-
Nothing

Natural mood regulator.
Best 5-HTP by Doctor's Best is a good, quality source of 5-HTP, which is a precursor to serotonin in the body. It seems to give me a more optimistic outlook. It's not nearly as strong or effective as Paxil or Lexapro, but you won't develop a dependence on it or suffer from withdrawal symptoms if you try to come off it.
Pros
-
Natural, gentle, effective.
Cons
-
Nothing.
