> Question for Lar and Chemist please:
> 1. can you safely take 5htp and Gaba at the same time?
Absolutely. I have no concerns whatsoever.> 2. are these stressful to the liver like medicine?
No. Absolutely not. Unless you take whole bottles-full at a time.> 3. is there any speculation/evidence that these are helpful to opiate addicts who are tapering off meds, in terms of helping the old neuro transmittors get back on path.
GABA or niacinamide might give some symptomatic relief, as might magnesium. Phosphatidyl-serine could also be mellowing.> You both sound like you are highly qualified to answer my questions. I just get sick of blowing money on supplements if they dont really do anything to help.
I wish that my advice might always be applicable, but, for the record, I have many 100's of dollars worth of supplements which have proven useless or even adverse, in my own supplement trials. You have to "do the experiment" to know. No amount of thinking can replace actual experience.
