I have been taking the 5-HTP for about 2 weeks or so after reading about it on the phenpro site. I would say that my mood is better than it had been. Even if it worked through a placebo effect I'll take it, my mood had been horrible. This time of year makes me a grump.

Thanx for your comment Hmhuntr!!
So it does really help your mood then? How do you take yours? Do you take it one time a day or 2 times a day? and do u take it in morning or night? Sorry so many questions just have heard alot about it so was wondering if it would be something to try! It seems pretty safe to take also....

I'm a little late to the thread, but here are my 2 cents...

5-HTP really works! Haven't used it to control my appetite while being on a weight loss plan though, but it's a great idea. It's a popular suplement among XTC (ecstasy) users because it's the only thing that will help your brain produce serotonin and restore the serotonin levels faster after you empty your serotonin reserve while rolling on XTC.

I've taken it myself and it helped my mood a lot. I used to take 1 pill every day and started noticing results after 3 weeks. It's really good for mild depression, and since it's a natural suplement it's pretty safe to take.
