Excelente opción y son iguales a la de gnc en términos de efecto

Good Product!

Price is fair and quality is good.

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!

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.
