5 HTP - I briefly checked out today. &#160;since it was on sale at Longs.

But NOTE: &#160;it raises blood serotonin - and as such it is in BAD company (see fenfen etc.

reteroperiton fibrosis, fibrotic heart valves, etc ... chronic pulmon hypertension ...

it is NOT taken or mentioned by Ray or Terry. &#160;Look at the chronic 5HTP side-effects or

chronic serotonin side effects in wiki - a lot and scary ... forget it.

&#160;

It is also NOT mentioned in the Brain Nutrition paper ... forget it.

&#160;

Ray does take testosterone and the conversion inhibitor.</p>
