F.A.Q. Serotonin Booster AlphaVit
2. Can you combine serotonin boosters with other dietary supplements?
In many cases it is possible to combine nutritional supplements. However, if in doubt, we recommend consulting a nutritionist.
3. Can the tablets be crushed or mixed with yogurt?
Amino acids from foods compete with those from serotonin boosters. Therefore, it is recommended not to mix the capsule with protein-containing products such as yogurt. Do not drink dairy products 30 minutes before and after taking Serotonin Booster and take it with fruit juice or water to ensure optimal absorption.
4. Can you have intestinal problems when using serotonin boosters?
It is unlikely that you will have problems with your intestines. Synthetic 5-HTP can potentially cause intestinal problems, heartburn and stomach pain, while natural 5-HTP from Griffonia has almost none of these side effects. If you do experience symptoms, they usually go away within a few days after your body gets used to them.
5. How many days does it take for the serotonin booster to take effect?
For most people, the effect of the serotonin booster begins within a few days, but at the latest after one to two weeks.
It is recommended to take one capsule in the morning 30 minutes before breakfast.
To achieve the optimal effect, dairy products should not be consumed for 30 minutes before and after intake. It is taken with water or juice. If necessary, the dosage can be increased from one to two capsules per day if too little effect is felt.
6. Can the effects of Serotonin Booster be guaranteed?

20. Can you combine serotonin boosters with XTC/MDMA?
