NatureWise 5-HTP Max Potency Capsules - 200mg -60 Count

Im really happy with this formula. I used to take a prescription for anxiety and depression but now I’ve replaced it with this! It also has helped tremendously with some Menopause hot flashes and moodiness.

After struggling with serotonin uptake levels for years and suffering with depression and fatigue, as a result, I was happy to find a more natural product that actually works. I will not stay 5HPT combats my symptoms alone, but I will say they take the edge off and allow me to avoid taking pharmaceutical prescriptions. Knowing my body and being aware of how my body is handling the stresses in my life (that I can and can not control) helps the effectiveness of this product.This product is worth trying to help easy symptoms. Depression is a misunderstood and overly prescribed medical condition... it is an easy diagnosis for Dr's rather then finding the root cause of symptoms.Serotonin reup take is a real issue that is often over looked because it is not understood... 5Htp will help as you search for the root cause. As well, I highly encourage anyone suffering with symptoms of depression to ask your doctor to test your Vit D levels (Hydroxy 25 test) - sadly you do have to request it. Majority of Americans are deficient - don't let your doctor fool you with excuses like go outside, or everyone is low (your level make difference, as some are more sensitive to blood level fluctuation then others ) - The healthy vit D is 50, despite the low end of the blood work "range" being 30. Vit D is fat soluble so go slow and have your levels checked.Above all Do Your Research and go slow with trying new things, so you know what works.

I had tried other brands of five HTP years ago, and never noticed any difference. It was in the big emotional hit of 2020 that I got a jar of this upon a friends recommendation. Within 48 hours I could feel my anxiety was diminished by I’d say at least half. As an added benefit I wasn’t walking around my house feeling like I needed to eat constantly. My ability to fall asleep and stay asleep was so improved that I was able to use just melatonin for the first time in my life, instead of the heavy medication. This five HTP has absolutely changed my life! I have been using this same product now for a couple of years and it is still effective. A few times I’ve switched brands just when I was running low and picked up another brand at the health food store—and then immediately re-ordered from Healthwise because the effect was not the same. I recommend this to any of my friends struggling with anxiety.

I've tried a number of 5-htp products over the years and came across this one a number of months ago. I had used the regular 5-htp (non-extended release) for almost 10 years to help me sleep and as a mood enhancer. A friend told me about the extended release and it has been a game changer for me ever since I have tried the few different brands out there and this is the best hands down. I feel it delivers the happy mood feeling throughout the day much better than other brands.

This is an honest review. Not sponsored nor given any free bottle for this.I just purchased this bottle 4 days ago and have been taking 100mg (half of capsule) In my green tea right before bed. It has been doing wonders for my mood and productivity. I am no longer anxious or feel bad thoughts. I was able to go the gym and get more done than I have in months. . That being said ...I recommended it to my boyfriend. He hesitated but I insisted. I just gave him some in my tea. ONE SIP. Probably not even 5mg potency worth?30 minutes later he had a SEVERE allergic reaction. As I’m writing this he has taken 5 Benadryl’s. Has hives, swollen ears and his eyes are closed shut. I am so scared I want to take him to the hospital but he doesn’t want to budge and deal with a crazy ER bill. I can barely even recognize him. BEWARE and be careful. I can only imagine if I gave him the normal recommended dose of 100mg (half capsule) or 200mg (full capsule) He would’ve probably gone into anaphylactic shock or be dead. No kidding.Thankfully he isn’t nauseous, experiencing vomiting or diarrhea yet and his throat isn’t shut and he can breathe fine. I’m praying it doesn’t not get worse.Please please. It could have killed him. Please be careful. We honestly don’t know what these supplements that are “natural” and not FDA approved will do to our body.I just got really lucky and it worked wonders for me. It hasn’t helped much with sleep. But my mood, low stress levels, anxiety, and low appetite has gotten a lot better !BE WARE. Or try small doses at a time.
