It does??? Well, damn, now I'm confused. So 5-HTP CAN cross the BBB and CAN be an effective AD? I thought it was all just hype.
That begs the question, if supplemented 5-HTP can cross the BBB, then could supplemented serotonin itself cross the BBB? It shouldn't be possible, but neither should 5-HTP's crossing, right?
