Rewarded Review

If you can't sleep you need this. You need a good night's sleep for your overall health. This quality brand won't fail you. The pill is very big and you may have a nightmare the first time you take it. Every time I have trouble sleeping this works for me. I have energy in the morning with no trouble waking up.

Seems good quality but not gonna fix you if you are actually sick. Might be an okay supplement with meds

Rewarded Review

I ordered these with the intention of fixing whatever was wrong with me (felt very low on energy, brain fog, weight gain...) but even after going through the entire bottle along with L-Tyrosine, I felt no different - however a few weeks later after I finished these supplements, I finally went to the doctor and got diagnosed with Hashimotos. So definitely check first if there's something medically wrong with you, and if you supplement along with regular meds, ask your doctor first - I'm currently just doing normal meds. They seem quality enough and that people have good experiences, but not for me.

This is potent stuff and packs a punch. As someone who has suffered terrible insomnia, waking up in the middle of the night for literally months and struggling to get back to sleep, I have tried all sorts of remedies. I'm now on to Tryptophan which is supposed to aid in the production of serotonin which in turns helps to produce more melatonin. I slept well last night after taking it, here's hoping it continues to be effective.

Rewarded Review

I take 2 of these every night before bed. I had started not being able to sleep well and when I would wake up in the middle of the night I could fall back to sleep. Now I fall back to sleep easily. I make sure I am never without these!

L-tryptophan is important for many organs in the body. L-tryptophan is not made by the body and must be consumed from the diet. After absorbing L-tryptophan from food, the body converts some of it to 5-HTP and then to serotonin. Serotonin is a hormone that transmits signals between nerve cells. Changes in serotonin levels in the brain can affect mood.

if you have trouble falling asleep, and need some natural aid, I recommend this amino acid. not just for anxiety or depression, delivery is fast and dose is accurate. characteristics of cocktail corresponds. I have ordered it a second time. if you're in a keto diet, trying to sleep more is crucial.

Helps a lot

Rewarded Review

I started taking this as a natural alternative to melatonin, because I was afraid my anxiety-related insomnia would return after I weaned off my anxiety meds. I take this along with 5- HTP buy the same brand, one tablet of each before bed, and I have been sleeping so well. I would say this combo works just as well as melatonin if not better. I also found that taking these two meds helped greatly with the “brain-zaps” I was experiencing while weaning off the anxiety medicine.

Love it to calm me down in the evening to help me start feel more relaxed to go to sleep. As it is a precursor to serotonin (and melatonin, which is why it makes you sleepy) it has the beneficial side effect of also boosting your serotonin levels and lifting depressive episodes
