Reviews on 5HTP:
Dr. Murray is my brother in the true spirit of healing, a champion of
natural medicine who has much to teach psychiatry about relieving
mental suffering.

Dr. Michael Murray explains why 5-HTP, a natural substance, is as powerful
a treatment as the latest wonder drugs -- and yet is so much safer
it doesn't need a prescription! This is an important book that will
bring blessed relief to many people.

Again
Dr. Murray is on target, this time teaching us the pertinent facts
and the importance of serotonin and its precursor, 5-HTP.... An
important work for all who desire a healthier, longer, and more
fruitful life.

5-HTP
prevents and controls depression, insomnia, and aggression, as well
as appetite and weight, particularly for 'carbohydrate cravers.'...
Infinitely better than a 'wonder drug,' 5-HTP is a 'miracle molecule,'
an integral part of the miracle of life on Earth.
