5-HTP

well my link got removed.

is NATROL a good brand.
or is there a better one.
according to the Natrol box it is 50mg caplsules, 45 total for 11.79
it alos says to only take 1 per day with a meal

also there is All Nature is that a good brand
it is 100mg caplsules, 100 total for 14.95
it also says, take two capsules daily

i also found Doctor’s Best
100mg Capsule, 60 total, retal price 26.99, sale 9.95

also i read that some might not have 100% 5-htp, they might have 50%, so a 100mg pill will only give to 50mg. if that is true what brand does not do that.

any ideas, i want to get a good brand

I don’t think the brand matters. I’m taking Natrol.

The LDs keep coming. I love it.

How many have you had since starting taking 5HTP?
And have they been long or vivid? Or more than usual.

And how about your dream recall? And have you done any techniques on top or…

Sorry for the questions… just intrigued

ok i bought Jarrow formuals 5-htp 100mg. 60 caps. reg $21.99. i found a site that had it for on sale for $15.99 and i found a $5 off coupon on the internet for the site. all in total it was $12.98 with shipping.

the bottal says take 1 capsual per day. i assume it is still safe to take like 2 or 3?

I’m going to GNC tonight when I get off work!
I’ll come back here and post any results tomorrow.
Many thanks!

bullet: Id look up on wikipedia which doses are safe to take. Moogle also posted some information earlier in this thread to do with doses. ^^

I hope they work for you, i may be getting some near december so. Ill post if i do.

well i did remember a hole dream not just pices

I found SAM-e at a chemist in Australia, does anyone know if it is as good as 5-HTP? I would rather buy something from here than order over the internet if I can help it…

I’ve had maybe 3-5 LDs since starting it not too long ago. Before that I had only like 12 LDs for an entire year. It broke a long dry spell and has been consistently giving me much longer and more vivid dreams. More dreams than usual as well.

Dream recall has been improved as well. No techniques.

well it has been like 2 or 3 weeks now and i wanted to post my results

for the first week i was taking 2 100mg caps a day.
i was getting a lot of gas so i started to take only 1 cap per day about an hour before bed.

i have started to remember 2 ~ 3 dreams a night and the lengh and vividness has incressed. i think my stomic has gotten use so i will be taking 2 caps again starting tommorow.

I just started taking 5-HTP since yesterday as I found it in a health food store…

It’s a 50mg tablet…
No particular results after the first night, but I’m quite hopeful.

Just wondering, would a Walgreens carry something like this? I don’t have a drug store very close to me. . Definatly going to give this a go though.

it is possibal, but you could check there website and see if there is somekind of thing that well tell you if store has it.

You can get it at GNC.

It’s odd… 5-HTP seems to have suppressed my dreaming (REM dreams?) somehow…
I think tonight I’ll give it a break and try a wake up method instead…

I tend to notice it most when I wake up in the morning but go back to sleep. That’s when the dreams are just mind blowing.

I didn’t take 5-HTP this night. Instead, as a kind of break, I did a whey protein and green tea mix, took that when I woke up after 3 hours at night. I got a very vivid dream afterwards but no lucidity.
Still it’s positive.

sounds like you lot are all dope fiends
lol
i think i may invest in 5-htp
ha its found in cheese
so thats why cheese is supposed to help
makes sence

Every time I take 5-htp my dream recall drops down to zero… I wonder…
Seems like 5-htp isn’t helping me…

It’s interesting though how dream lizard posted his dream recall went up… For me it’s the opposite with 5-htp…
