5-HTP: The womanly antidepressant cofactor that could kill you!
This amino acid consistently increases the levels of the "feel-good" neurotransmitter Serotonin and that's not always a good thing.
It's not a quintessential Nootropic or smart drug that you can expect to enhance cognition and make you more productive. I think it's most accurately described as a mood normalizer; if your mood is down and you're depressed it will bring you back to baseline but if you're generally in good spirits it won't do much for you.
