How to take it
With food
5-HTP does better on an empty stomach, but something else in this bottle needs food. Taking the whole product with a meal is the better trade — an upset stomach is why most people stop.
Keep it away from protein-heavy meals
Space it a couple of hours from SAMe
On the label
As a dietary supplement, take 3 capsules, 1-2 times daily, between meals.
Do not combine with St. John's Wort
Each of these raises serotonin activity on top of St. John's Wort, and together they can trigger serotonin syndrome — agitation, rapid heartbeat, raised blood pressure. Not without medical supervision.
