    Ashwaganda over long term is problematic; do more of your research on this; the info he gives is insufficient. As for 5HTP, it inhibits the production of the necessary amino acid, l-tyrosine & so one must supplement for it (@ 10x the amt of 5HTP) when taking 5HTP. Finally, as for consulting your health care provider on supplements: lots of luck! the majority of MDs have no training nor, worse, interest in nutritional medicine.

      You're spot on.

      And ashwagandha makes you numb.
      I took it for many months and it kinda made me emotionless

I've seen countless doctors have had dozens of tests done. I was severely deficient in some different minerals and 5thp and GABA. I'm on 5thp but Gaba gives me anxiety; do you have a suggestion on what else I could take instead of gaba? Thank you!!
