5-htp....?!?!

5-htp....?!?

I bought a bottle of 100 mg 5-HTP yesterday. It says to take one capsule daily with a meal, which is what I did this morning with my breakfast. If you've taken it before, I have a few questions: How long did it take for you to see any results (days/weeks)? How long does it take to start working (minutes/hours)? What side effects, if any, did you experience? Was your anxiety/depression significantly reduced? How much did it decrease your appetite/how much weight did you lose, if any?

Please also include anything else that you think is important or relevant. Thanks so much!

Depending on the problem, you could feel results within 24 hours. Side effects may include a headache, though that's rare.
If your serotonin is low, it might relieve some anxiety. If the anxiety/depression isn't related to serotonin, it won't. It's not used as a weight loss pill, but is used to increase your serotonin because low serotonin is related to food (carb/sweet) cravings.
