NSI 5-HTP -- 200 mg - 120 Capsules

5-HTP increases serotonin levels in the brain which may positively enhance mood, sleep and weight management! How Does NSI® 5-HTP 200 mg work? -HTP, or 5-hydroxytryptophan, is a precursor to the neurotransmitter serotonin - which is essential for controlling mood, sleep and pain levels. The body produces 5-HTP from tryptophan, an amino acid found in small amounts in high-protein foods such as chicken, fish, beef and dairy products. It can also be taken in supplemental form, in which case it's extracted from the seeds of the Griffonia simplicifolia plant. 5-HTP is believed to help increase serotonin production in the brain, which may positively influence mood. 5-HTP may also help with other health issues related to serotonin deficiency, including nervousness, body tension and stiffness and head cavity discomfort. Certain elements of sleep are also believed to be affected by 5-HTP. Supplementing may not only assist with falling asleep faster, but also with increasing the duration of dream states (REM sleep) and of deep slumber. 5-HTP may also promote weight management by helping to reduce cravings for sweets and starches, which may help contribute to healthier overall eating habits. For best results and quickest absorption, take 5-HTP on an empty stomach. Do not take 5-HTP for more than three consecutive months without consulting a healthcare practitioner. NSI® 5-HTP 200 mg is better because it:. Is a higher-dose of 5-HTP, ideal for maintaining mood, sleep, and weight management after smaller-dose tolerance has been established. Is available at a better value than other 5-HTP products on the market. . Did You Know? All NSI supplements are packaged in HDPE (High Density Polyethylene) bottles. These bottles keep moisture vapor out, protecting the freshness and integrity of their contents, and are 400% more effective compared other brands currently using PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) bottles. HDPE bottles do not break as glass can and are also recyclable so we urge you to please recycle them.

"At first I thought this was a great pill to help with sleeping. I found that after a week of taking the pill it didn't work as well. So I stopped using it for a week and then tried again. So it shouldn't be used every night I guess. As far as cutting back on sweets, I did notice that I didn't crave it as much, that helps."

"I noticed the effects of the 5-HTP after a few days in a row of taking it before bed. They work great for mellowing out your mind and triggering your body's "sleep switch". The reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is because of one side effect I noticed. The 5-HTP mellow feeling seemed to last into the first several hours of my morning leaving my mind not feeling fully activated. Tip: Do not take 5-HTP longer than the product recommends."

"This helps so much for mood. I can definitely tell that it improves my attitude, which is really helpful since I'm in school with a full load and a hard major.
I don't take this regularly, usually just when I'm having a bad day. But I sometimes take it before I do cardio, which gives me a nice serotonin boost while i work out."

"My doctor recommende 5-HTP for my insomnia. There are no side effects and helps me sleep all night. This 5-HTP is the most effective and most economical of the other brands I've tried.
At 200mg instead of 100mg in other dosages and brands, this is the easiest to take every night."

"-This takes a week to kick in for me, and only a day to wear off if I forget to take it.
- Don't take it in the morning like I did! This is a great sleep aide, and absolutely helped with my insomnia. When I first started using this product, I used no other supplement besides for a multi-vitamin, so I attribute my sleeping through the night on this product alone.
- It makes me feel like its not the end of the world when I get upset. It has helped me stay in control of emotions during stressful situations, which is a huge problem for me otherwise. It also generally makes me happier - just a better outlook on life.
- I 100% recommend this product to anyone with these problems - this has become a staple in my life."

"You will sleep much better and your outlook will be improved. A win-win situation.. I had to have minor surgery and was having a rough time coping with this. I felt that it was vital that I improve my outlook. 5HTP put me on a even keel. I sleep better and my posititve outlook has resurfaced. Incredible. Thanks NSI."

"I have tried a number of sleep assisting natural remedies in the past. Most of them are either very expensive, don't really work or leave you feeling sluggish the next day. With 5-HPT I was still able to get back to sleep during the night whenever I awoke but had no "hangover" the following morning. So all in all I rate this product very high."

"I have been taking this on the recommendation of my neurologists for my migraine headaches. It really helps. It doesn't get rid of them it has cut down the amount I have. I have tried EVERYTHING and this has been the best so far. It is an amino acid, a precurser to serotonin uptake, important neurotramsmitter for your brain. It also help with your mood and PMS symptoms."
