kingink24 Posted April 12 Report Posted April 12 a rule of thumb will be to take it once a day for a week after you drop. but it really depends on which 5-HTP pills you have and how many happy pills you drop in a session.the main thing you meed to know is that 5-HTP helps in restoring serotonin.here is a basic URL about 5-HTP http://herbshop.com/5htpfact.htm ------------------I move smooth under water.

batidde Posted April 14 Report Posted April 14 5-htp is useless if take just before ya drop, you have the preload aleast week before and after, so that probably means every day, lol. It does make a noticable difference------------------I took the red pill, then i took the blue pill, then the yellow, then the red. And followed the bunny into the hole to never see a single soul.

purplepower Posted April 15 Report Posted April 15 I take it right after I roll. Helps your body replentish the seratonin faster.------------------"The surest way to corrupt a youth is to instruct him to hold in higher esteem those who think alike than those who think differently." --Friedrich Nietzsche Quote
~surreal~ Posted April 16 Report Posted April 16 My bf and I started pre and post loading recently and it works great for the both of us. We preload a few hours before we drop, and let me tell you it's made a huge differece in how I feel. Rolling hasn't been this much fun in a LONG time for me before we discovered 5-HTP. Then, when we come down, we take more 5-HTP so we don't have hang overs and that groggy disconnected feeling the next day. Here's a recipe that we use for preloading. WARNING: DO NOT EAT RIGHT BEFORE OR AFTER. ALLOW ATLEAST 2 HOURS. CAN CAUSE SEVER NAUSEA.Preloading:About 24 oz. of juice or a beverage high in fructose or sucrose(e.g. orange)500 mg 5-HTP1500 mg L-Tyrosine1500 mg DLPA5 g Glutamine1000 g vitamin CEmpty contents of capsules in to beverage and shake to dillute. Drink atleast 3 hours before dropping along with the vitamin C tablet.Postloading:200 mg 5-HTPUsually taken before going to bed or when coming down.The 5-HTP capsules can be purchased in 50 or 100 mg capsules. The 100 mg capsules are a better value.I hope this helps!BTW, remember to ALWAYS test your pills before hand.Cat------------------ "I try to make everyone's life a little more ." - Calvin, "Calvin & Hobbes" Quote
