Jan, why did you take only 5 mg per day? The tablets I found at Walgreens were 50 mg. The info that BobP posted indicated that 100 mg per day might be appropriate. Did you experiment to arrive at that 5 mg dosage, or was there some other reason?
RE DIET & 5-HTP: From the info that BobP linked to it suggested that a high-protein, low carbohydrate diet was most appropirate when taking 5-HTP to increase serotonin production. What, if anything, can you say about your diet during the 5-HTP treatment period?
