> First of all, why is this stuff so expensive and hard to find? I have only been able to find it at GNC. $25 for 60 tablets of 50mg. I don't have any independant health food stores around me. Where could I order this online at a decent price?
>iHerb.com or Vitacost.com. I use mostly iHerb but others have said good tings about Vitacost.com. They're great and the shipping if you order over $20 worth. Amazon.com may have it now too. They have good prices. The shipping is confusing and it may take longer to get it than with the other two though.
> Does 5-HTP take a long time to begin working like SJW does? Or is this something you take as needed? How long do you need to take it before feeling the benefits? What is the normal dosing of it. I am guessing once a day like 50 mg before bedtime?
Here's some good info on 5-HTP. (Ignore the product plugs in between.)http://www.raysahelian.com/5-htp.html
