Re: Is it safe to take the following supplments for sleep and racing thoughts?

[Guest guest]

I went to a new ND last week and he suggested I take Phosphorylated

serine 1-3 in early evening and 1 before bed to decrease night cortisol

levels.(the brand is Seriphos or something 1000mg) Sounds good I think,

but I forgot to ask him about taking 5-htp as well for racing thoughts,

anxiety. Does anyone take this combo? I just want to make sure it is

safe to take both. My thoughts race at night when I wake up-after only

2-3 hours of sleep if I'm lucky. I don't have an official diagnosis of

depression, but I'm thinking the racing thoughts could be a symptom of

this. I must be in denial about depression because I never thought of

myself as having it-maybe just " the blues " from time to time. Any

feedback appreciated. Thanks, Sidney

Sidney,

I have taken both at the same time. Good luck.
