Review: The nausea means its working - Edit: TLDR: eat a few crackers or a couple candies before taking 5-HTP, and nothing else I have learned more about the biochemistry of 5-HTP, and exactly what you eat with it makes a huge difference. An empty stomach will cause nausea as most of the 5-HTP is absorbed quickly and converted into serotonin near the gut. A protein rich snack will block absorption of 5-HTP, as the other amino acids compete for absorption via the LAT1 transport. A carb rich snack will not compete for absorption in the gut, will reduce the nausea, and the increased insulin will suppress other amino acids in the blood, leading to preferential transport of 5-HTP across the blood brain barrier, leading to much more pronounced effects on mood and focus. I think the inconsistent effects I mentioned in the original review was from me switching to a higher protein breakfast, as opposed to the relatively sugary trail mix I had before. --- original review: The quality is inconsistent. I got a bottle that had zero effect (ordered October 2024), but the lack of effect made it INCREDIBLY clear how much it had been working before then. So, when it works, it gives me a buzzy energry that lasts throughout the day. It has completely changed my productivity at work, and literally carried me to employee of the month. The nausea is important to address. DO NOT take this on an empty stomach. You will feel absolutely terrible, and unable to do anything for a couple hours. That being said, it works best if you have very little in your stomach. If I eat just a handful of trail mix or something, it will come on strong, and last for hours without making me sick. Hopefully the next bottle is full strength again. I assume the heat in a warehouse or delivery truck deactivated it. Review: Effective and High-Quality 5-HTP – Best Price and Trusted Brand! - Nutricost 5-HTP 200mg is an excellent supplement for mood and sleep support. The 120 vegetarian capsules make it a fantastic value for the price—the best deal I found for this potency and quantity. I appreciate that it’s non-GMO, gluten-free, and clearly labeled, which gives extra peace of mind about what I’m taking. The capsules are easy to swallow and have had noticeable positive effects on my overall well-being. Nutricost is a brand I trust for quality supplements, and I’m very likely to buy this bottle again. Highly recommend for anyone looking for reliable, high-quality 5-HTP. 5 stars! ## Features - 120 Vegetarian Capsules of High Quality 5-HTP - 200mg Per Vegetarian Capsule - 3rd Party Tested by ISO-Accredited Laboratories - Non-GMO, Gluten Free, Vegetarian - Made in a NSF Certified, GMP Compliant, FDA Registered Facility ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07737HBN6 | | ASIN | B07737HBN6 | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Allergen Information | Gluten Free | | Best Sellers Rank | #6,958 in Health & Household ( See Top 100 in Health & Household ) #4 in 5-HTP Nutritional Supplements #134 in Blended Vitamin & Mineral Supplements | | Brand Name | Nutricost | | Color | Red | | Container Type | Bottle | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (3,714) | | Date First Available | December 30, 2015 | | Diet Type | Vegetarian | | Dosage Form | Capsule | | Flavor | vegetable | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00810014675145 | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Dimensions | 2.71 x 2.71 x 5.19 inches | | Item Form | Capsule | | Item Weight | 0.01 Ounces | | Manufacturer | Nutricost | | Manufacturer | Nutricost | | Manufacturer Part Number | NC-5HTP200-120C | | Material Features | GMO Free, Gluten Free, Vegetarian | | Material Type Free | Non-GMO & Gluten-Free-Gluten-Free | | Number of Items | 1 | | Primary Supplement Type | Non-specific | | Product Benefits | gluten free | | Product Dimensions | 2.71 x 2.71 x 5.19 inches; 0.01 ounces | | Special Ingredients | 5-Hydroxytryptophan | | Specific Uses For Product | Laboratory | | Total Servings Per Container | 120 | | UPC | 810014675145 | | Unit Count | 120 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Nutricost - **Diet Type:** Vegetarian - **Flavor:** vegetable - **Item Form:** Capsule - **Item Weight:** 0.01 Ounces - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 2.71 x 2.71 x 5.19 inches - **Primary Supplement Type:** Non-specific - **Product Benefits:** gluten free - **Special Ingredients:** 5-Hydroxytryptophan - **Unit Count:** 120 Count ## Images ![Nutricost 5-HTP 200mg, 120 Vegetarian Capsules (5-Hydroxytryptophan) - Non-GMO & Gluten Free - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/6175pA3tGbL.jpg) ![Nutricost 5-HTP 200mg, 120 Vegetarian Capsules (5-Hydroxytryptophan) - Non-GMO & Gluten Free - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71hwHzDIqYL.jpg) ![Nutricost 5-HTP 200mg, 120 Vegetarian Capsules (5-Hydroxytryptophan) - Non-GMO & Gluten Free - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71ejDJ-16ZL.jpg) ![Nutricost 5-HTP 200mg, 120 Vegetarian Capsules (5-Hydroxytryptophan) - Non-GMO & Gluten Free - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71QytSAO4ZL.jpg) ![Nutricost 5-HTP 200mg, 120 Vegetarian Capsules (5-Hydroxytryptophan) - Non-GMO & Gluten Free - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/718f9VoEDrL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Does it help with hunger control?** A: No; I took it at night to help with anxiety and sleep. **Q: The description says 60 capsules, but the headline and bottle image say 120 capsules.

I’m rating this a 5, but would give it a 4.5 if I could. Personally, I have to take half a capsule to avoid upsetting my stomach, but it is easy to swallow and has no taste. No gross plastic taste or chemical taste. I wouldn’t recommend a dry-swallow, but you do you! ## Frequently Bought Together - Nutricost 5-HTP 200mg, 120 Vegetarian Capsules (5-Hydroxytryptophan) - Non-GMO & Gluten Free - Nutricost Ashwagandha Herbal Supplement 600mg, 120 Capsules - Vegetarian, Non-GMO, Gluten Free, Ashwagandha Root - Nutricost L-Theanine 200mg, 240 Capsules - Double Strength --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/57231457-nutricost-5-htp-200mg-120-vegetarian-capsules-5-hydroxytryptophan-non](https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/57231457-nutricost-5-htp-200mg-120-vegetarian-capsules-5-hydroxytryptophan-non) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kuwait* *Store origin: KW* *Last updated: 2026-05-13*
