I have read a couple of different posts about taking 5HTP along with vitiman B6. Some of the posts say to absolutely not take B6 with 5HTP, while others say it is definitely important to as B6 helps in the creation of seretonin.
Is there a definite answer to this?
What is the reasoning of not taking vitamin B6 with 5HTP?
5HTP seems to really help with my type of depression, whereas I have had some pretty severe reactions to other AD's.
Should I worry about build up of 5HTP in my blood? Some say it is not able to cross over to the brain. That is definitely not true as I without a doubt feel benificial affects hours after taking it.
Should I look into taking L-Tyrosine along with 5HTP to avoid tolerance?
What about looking into Carbida as a prescription while using 5HTP because of the high blood level of seretonin issue?
Will either Tyrosine or Carbida make the 5HTP less effective in any way?
Thanks for any suggestions
