NatureWise 5-HTP 200mg, Vegan 5 HTP Plus Supplement from Griffonia Seeds with Cofactor Vitamin B6 - Mood Support Supplement & Natural Sleep Aid fo...

There are quite a few reasons why I love this product. For one, it definitely supports my cravings habits. I find myself reaching for healthier options now. Additionally, the fact that it's gluten-free is a huge bonus for me. The product also comes enhanced with vitamin B6, adding to its health benefits. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for a dietary supplement!

I really like the features of this supplement. Its Non-GMO attribute is something I greatly value in my health products. It's enhanced with vitamin B6, which adds to its overall benefits. Also, the potency of the 200 mg dose significantly meets my dietary supplement needs. I am genuinely impressed with the quality and effectiveness of this product.

I have been taking this supplement for years, and this is the best one. I found it worked faster than the others and made me feel better within days of starting. Would recommend.

This started working after my very first dose, I noted falling asleep easier that night & less worried thoughts. It creates an incredibly strong drowsy feeling for me, as well as helps me shut down my busy mind, so I wait to take it about 1 hour before my routine bedtime. I once made the mistake of taking it in the afternoon to experiment if it indeed was this supplement creating the drowsiness or something else, & within about an hour I could barely keep my eyes open nor concentrate on anything that I was attempting to accomplish, so had to give in to an hour nap, & still woke feeling very sleepy with issues of shaking it off for a few more hours. Since then I only take late evenings. Also beneficial, I have been falling asleep so much more quickly & easier since taking this. Furthermore I am not having as much racing thoughts as Im settling down to sleep as before I started this supplement. So for me this supplement has been very effective at aiding in initializing sleep & with much less anxiety sleep disturbance. I cannot say that I have noticed it helping my mood issues throughout the next day, nor have I lost any weight as of yet, but Ive also not yet even finished a full month of it, so time will tell. However, the improvements in overall sleep quality alone is well worth adding this supplement to my evening regimen!!!

For background info, I am a 31 year old woman with an Anxiety Disorder and Major Depressive Disorder. My depression symptoms are minimal and manageable for the most part, but my anxiety symptoms are disruptive to my life on the regular. I have tried various anti-depressants and was never really wowed with results and felt like the side effects just weren't worth it at all. I began researching natural alternatives and supplements. I previously tried the 5-HTP from Arazo Nutrition. I felt like that helped with sleep but I didn't really notice any changes with mood/appetite. Also I felt like if I took it on an empty stomach I became very nauseous. I eventually stopped taking it due to the underwhelming results but wondered if I switched brands would it help. I then decided to try Naturewise, as it was reasonably priced and had many, many good reviews. I have been taking this product consistently for over a month now in conjunction with 1950 mg of Ashwagandha and I definitely am noticing that I feel better. I have not noticed any side effects. My anxiety is much more manageable and I have notably fewer mood swings. I have more energy and more of an uplifted mood. I definitely sleep very soundly on this product as well. I haven't noticed any crazy reduction in appetite, but that wasn't really one of my goals in taking this product. Full disclosure, I am receiving my next bottle of this supplement for free but I was not required to write a review in order to do so. Additionally, I would not have inquired about receiving a free bottle if I didn't think the product was working or worth my while. Think about it- why would someone want a free bottle of something that doesn't work or is harmful? I encourage everyone to do their own research and keep in mind that everyone is different and may react differently to medications/supplements. It is important to find a healthcare routine that works for you individually and of course speak to your doctor regarding any changes you are making. Really happy to finally be feeling a little better and know that I'm not putting questionably harmful substances with scary side effects in my body in order to do so.
