Reddit reviews Nutrigold 5-htp 100mg, 120 Vegetarian Capsules - The Gold Standard Pure 5-Htp Extract Guaranteed Free of Harmful Peak-x, Gmos, Allergens

5-HTP is sold over the counter as an antidepressant, appetite suppressant, and sleep aid.

L-tryptophan is a natural amino acid and is a compound used in the creation of serotonin and can also be bought over the counter in supplement form (used as an antidepressant and sleep aid) but it also occurs naturally in many foods.

As Anonymous_69 stated, Vitamin B (particularly B6) works well too as it helps convert the tryptophan into serotonin. Vitamin B also helps in the generation of dopamine.

The thing is that my fibromyalgia does respond to 5-HTP. (Definitely try it if you haven't already.) But the effects of 5-HTP are not nearly as good as the effects of cannabis. 5-HTP lessens the pain a noticeable amount, but cannabis pretty much takes it away completely.

Having to lie and say "nothing works" just to get medical cannabis when it's the only thing that completely relieves you of your suffering is bullshit.

Of course, I live in New York City where we don't even have medical for some reason, so all this is kind of moot to me.
