5Hp- what is it?

[losfeliz1970]

can somebody give me the low down on 5Hp?  is is supposed to give you energy?  is it like a natural viciodin...that probably doesn't work :)?

was wondering if anybody has used it and what their experience was

here's some info on 5htp  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5-Hydroxytryptophan
you're not supposed to take it together with L-Thyrosine.
5htp is an amino acid and vitamin B6 makes it absorbable by your body.

thanks for your replies.  how is it different from L-Tyrosine?  are you supposed to take them both with vitamin B6?  i heard if you don't they won't work.  true or false?

It acts as a mood stabilizer of some sort. Its like an over the counter antidepressent.
