Ame/Lar,

GNC DID carry tryptophan just a little while back (I saw it there).
Anyway, they don't now.
The employees at BOTH GNC AND the Vitamin Shoppe tried to tell me that 5HTP was the same thing.
Sheeesh......I know that the Amester strongly prefers the tryptophan over the 5HTP.....Lar, where do you stand on tryp vs. 5htp---does one work better than the other? If tryp>>>5htp>>>serotonin, why is it that 5htp wouldn't work better, being one step closer? Want to know what you think Lar. (It's funny, the pharm. co's no doubt had big influence in getting tryp yanked from the market (and KEPT off the market for over a decade! when it wasn't even a problem with the tryp itself....funny how that just 'happened' to occur RIGHT BEFORE the rollout of Prozac and the other slew of pharm. co's swill (ssri's)...nothing like eliminating the competition....Vitamin Shoppe has PLENTY of 5htp products to choose from though but I didn't see any tryp.......I definitely want to try the tryp and not the 5htp...which do you think is better Lar?
