The page also offers a view of the supplement facts label, which provides specific dosage information for the active ingredient, and allows the user to be fully informed as to what they are putting into their body.<\/p>\n<p>Here is a full list of ingredients that are used in Doctor\u2019s Best 5-HTTP:<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"174\"><strong>5-hydroxy L-tryptophan<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><strong>5-HTP: <\/strong>Extracted from an African plant named Griffonia simplicifolia, it is used primarily for treating sleep disorders like insomnia, as well as anxiety, depression, obesity, ADHD, seizures, and migraines. The ingredient works by increasing the production of serotonin in the brain and nervous system, which can have a profound effect upon sleep, mood, and sexual behavior. Unfortunately, there are some potential side effects that are associated with taking the ingredient, including:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em>Heartburn, stomach pain, nausea, and sexual problems<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/top-rated-sleep-aids\/\">The top 10 sleep aids have been identified by our review experts and they can be viewed by following this link.<\/a><\/p>\n<!-- Widget Shortcode --><div id=\"execphp-49\" class=\"widget widget_execphp widget-shortcode area-arbitrary \">\t\t\t<div class=\"execphpwidget\"><p class=\"gr-mk\"><strong>EDITOR\u2019S TIP:<\/strong> Combine this supplement with a proven sleep aid such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/09\/fenotrex-review\/\">Fenotrex<\/a> for better results.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div><!-- \/Widget Shortcode -->\n<h5><strong>Doctor\u2019s Best 5-HTP Quality of Ingredients<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>5-HTP has a lot of potential uses because it is known to increase the production of the chemical serotonin which can improve the brain and central nervous system. While serotonin is key in improving many aspects of one\u2019s life, including appetite, sexual behavior, pain management, and sleep, it can also lead to some mild to severe potential side effects within the user.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to more mild side effects such as nausea, heartburn, diarrhea, and stomach pain, there are those who have taken it and developed a condition called eosinophilia-myalgia syndrome or EMS. This syndrome is quite serious and effects the tenderness of the user\u2019s muscles. Aside from the potential side effects, using just 5-HTP to address sleeplessness, ignores the several other clinically studied ingredients on the market that have been shown to be effective in treating sleeplessness, such as valerian root, melatonin, chamomile, and more.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/top-rated-sleep-aids\/\">Your quality of sleep is too valuable to mess around with sleep aids that don\u2019t work, so follow this link to view the top 10 sleep aids on the market.<\/a><\/p>\n<h5><strong>The Price and Quality of Doctor\u2019s Best 5-HTP<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>The product is not sold through the manufacturer\u2019s website, but is available through several well-known online vendors such as Amazon, iHerb, and Lucky Vitamin. On Amazon, a 60-capsule bottle is available for $8.45 plus shipping and handling. While this is seemingly a competitive price, you are essentially only paying for one ingredient, rather than a fully formed formula.<\/p>\n<p>If you are simply looking to boost your serotonin levels or address other aspects of your health aside from sleep, then perhaps this is a product worth looking into, but for those who are troubled by poor sleep quality, this product only provides one aspect of sleep health, and one that comes with the potential for several negative side effects at that. Additionally, because it is only sold through third-party vendors, there are no free trials or money back guarantees that are offered with the product, so if a consumer purchases it and finds it to be ineffective, it will likely just be a sunk cost to them.<\/p>\n<h5><strong>Business of Doctor\u2019s Best 5-HTP<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>Doctor\u2019s Best 5-HTP is produced and manufactured by Doctor\u2019s Best, Inc., a producer of health and wellness supplements located in California.<\/p>\n<p>Here is the contact information we could find for the company online:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Address: <\/strong>Doctor\u2019s Best Inc., 18100 Von Karman Ave, Suite 800, Irvine, CA 92612<\/p>\n<p><strong>Phone Number: <\/strong>1-800-777-2474<\/p>\n<p><strong>Email: <\/strong><a href=\"mailto:info@drbvitamins.com\">info@drbvitamins.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Discuss BBB page and lawsuits<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/top-rated-sleep-aids\/\">Learn what makes up an effective, potent sleep aid by viewing the top 10 sleep aids available now through this link.<\/a><\/p>\n<h5><strong>Customer Opinions of Doctor\u2019s Best 5-HTP<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>The product is sold through a variety of online vendors, including Amazon, Lucky Vitamin, iHerb, and more. This means that objective reviews of the product are relatively easy to find online. For the most part, the reviews of the product are mixed to negative. Some users found it to be effective in some respects, such as improving mood, but not many seemed to find any benefit when it came to improving their sleep habits.<\/p>\n<p>Here are some of the consumer reviews that we could locate online:<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cThe product does what it says it will do, but I also developed heart palpitations, which put me into the emergency room.\u201d <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cI don\u2019t think this product has any effect on me. I even tried taking more than the recommended dosage and still nothing.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cThis product didn\u2019t work for me, even after two months on the supplement I didn\u2019t notice any significant changes in my sleep.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/top-rated-sleep-aids\/\">Review experts were tasked with evaluating all the sleep aids on the market and as a result they composed this top 10 list.<\/a><\/p>\n<h5><strong>Conclusion \u2013 Does Doctor\u2019s Best 5-HTP Work?<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>Doctor\u2019s 5-HTP is about as simple as it gets in terms of formula, as it only features one active ingredient in 5-HTP. While that ingredient has a lot of potential uses because of its ability to increase serotonin levels, it also comes with a number of potentially negative side effects that range from mild to serious. We typically recommend avoiding sleep supplements that contain 5-HTP, so naturally we would recommend avoiding a supplement that is only made up of 5-HTP.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s not to say that 5-HTP does not have the ability to be an effective ingredient. Clinical studies have shown than it has many potential positive benefits, but even at its best it only offers one form of attack on sleeplessness, rather than a more well-rounded product which combines several different ingredients that have shown to be effective in treating sleeplessness, and can increase the chances of addressing the root cause of sleeplessness from several different angles. The consumer reviews that we found suggested that as a sleep aid, the product was lacking and that most consumers didn\u2019t note any sort of difference in their sleep.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, we would recommend finding a sleep aid that utilizes more ingredients and doesn\u2019t come with the potential for creating the kind of negative side effects that Doctor\u2019s Best 5-HTP does.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\".\">Fenotrex<\/a> has been recognized as the top sleep aid on the market right not, mostly due to the unprecedented amount of positive reviews it has received from consumers, along with a formula that combines several clinically studied ingredients to create a potent attack against sleeplessness. Those who use the product as directed will find that they may experience improved energy levels during the day, a more established sleep schedule, and the ability to sleep throughout the night.<\/p>\n<p>All the active ingredients in <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/09\/fenotrex-review\/\">Fenotrex<\/a> have been clinically studied by independent third-parties and found to be generally safe and effective.
