Ingredients & Direction for Use

Supplementing with 5-HTP benefits your body by helping it combat sleep disorders, anxiety disorders, sugar cravings and many more. While minor side effects have been linked to 5-HTP, you can mitigate these by following healthy dosage instructions and talking with a doctor to determine whether 5-HTP is the supplement your body needs.

TAKING SSRI MEDICATION WITH THE GUMMIES

Many people take our gummies safely with their SSRI medication. However, it's important for you to be aware that if you are already taking SSRI medication also you can develop Serotonin syndrome. (This is when your body has too much of a chemical called serotonin, usually because of a medication or combinations of medications.)

It is a very rare condition, but it’s our duty to warn you. Most people are able to take this product with anti-depressant medication, but check with your doctor first. The bottom line seems to be this: serotonin syndrome is an extremely rare situation; combining triptans with other serotonin drugs has been safely done by millions of people; but more research is needed to reach a final resolution of this issue.

For any accidental overdose or a serious negative reaction to the gummies, immediately seek medical assistance.

WHAT SUPPLEMENTS SHOULD I AVOID WHILE TAKING 5-HTP?

Avoid using 5-HTP with other herbal/health supplements that can cause drowsiness. This includes California poppy, catnip, gotu kola, Jamaican dogwood, kava, melatonin, St. John's wort, skullcap (or scullcap), valerian, yerba mansa, carbidopa, narcotic medicine or cough medicine that contains dextromethorphan (DM), and others.

This list is not complete. Other drugs may interact with 5-hydroxytryptophan, including prescription and over-the-counter medicines, vitamins and herbal products.

5-HTP is not recommended for anyone who is pregnant or breastfeeding.

Anyone with Liver Disease, Heart Disease, Diabetes, High blood pressure, those with Downs Syndrome and those on Epilepsy Medication.

HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE

Serotonin causes tiny blood vessels to narrow, which helps promote blood clotting. And while this narrowing can help stop bleeding after an injury, it may increase the risk of dangerous blood clots in some people. Individuals with a history of high blood pressure or other cardiovascular risk factors should speak with a doctor before taking 5-HTP. If your doctor gives their approval, we recommend testing your blood pressure regularly to ensure it's not elevating.

For all other medical conditions, take the ingredients list to your doctor to advise if safe, prior to use.

HEMP GUMMIES FOR CALM & FOCUS 

Not recommended for people with schizophrenia or people taking Lithium, due to the ingredient of Taurine in our product.

Hemp oil as an ingredient is generally well-tolerated, but some individuals may experience minor side effects. These may include nausea, diarrhoea or bloating, particularly when taken in large doses. Rarely, individuals may notice changes in appetite or fatigue.

To minimise potential side effects, start with a small dose and gradually increase as needed. Always read the product label and follow the dosage guidelines for safe and effective use.

As with any supplement, it is possible to have an allergic reaction to 5-HTP, while severe allergic reactions are possible but rare.

Anyone who experiences symptoms of a severe allergic reaction or anaphylaxis after taking 5-HTP should seek emergency medical attention.

These symptoms may include: skin rash or hives, swelling of the lips, tongue or throat, shortness of breath or difficulty breathing, stomach pain, abdominal cramps, vomiting or diarrhoea, a feeling of impending doom.

If an accidental overdose of hemp oil gummies occurs, monitor for symptoms such as nausea, diarrhoea, dizziness or fatigue. Discontinue use immediately and get in touch with a healthcare professional for advice. For severe symptoms like difficulty breathing or extreme drowsiness, seek urgent medical attention. 

We strongly recommend consulting your doctor or healthcare provider before introducing any new supplement, including hemp oil gummies, into your routine. This step ensures the product is suitable for your specific health needs, conditions or current medications.

This applies especially to those with ongoing health concerns, expectant or nursing mothers, or individuals following prescribed medication. Your doctor can provide personalised advice on appropriate dosages and monitor for any signs of interactions or side effects.

While our gummies are generally safe for most people, each individual’s health profile is unique. Professional guidance helps you achieve the maximum benefits of the supplement while minimising risks. Taking supplements responsibly is an essential step in supporting your overall health and well-being.
