The supplement you are taking (5-HTP) is the metabolic precursor to Serotonin (5-HT), the happy hormone. Just to put some medical knowledge behind this, the mainstream antidepressants all affect serotonin levels in some way, ultimately resulting in an increased amount of the stuff in the synapses of your brain.

Thank you 
I was leaving all the "technical/medical" details to the links I provided, if people wanted to check it out, but that was a very nice, simply summary you gave - good job  |

I know this is an old post but I've been thinking of taking 5 HTP - could anybody recommend me a good quality product.
There are so many out there to choose from, and I'm not sure which brand to purchase...

Yes I take this supplement. My one is a combo tablet with St Johns Wort. I do feel more calm and less anxious. I am going to continue taking it.

Hi Burntfruit
Glad to hear 5-HTP is working for you - could I ask you which particular brand you purchase?

I can't say. I think it is against the rules.

I recommend checking out taking saffron as a supplement. I love it.
