Good product
I take it most nights along with a couple other supplements to help me go to sleep. Most nights it works. The occasions it doesn't, the only thing that works is a prescription sleep aid.

I have been taking 5-htp ...
I have been taking 5-htp for anxiety and OCD for several years now. I tried Zoloft with horrible results. The only side effect with 5-htp is sleepiness, but I take it before bed, so that works. I have tried other brands of 5-htp, and compared to others, this delivers the positive results I am looking for at a reasonable price. And yay for them being veggie caps!
