Since we are speaking of pills, last night I took a 5HTP, which is a precursor to seratonin made from the griffonia bean. I read in my husband's Mens Fitness that taking this stuff is supposed to reduce carb cravings - plus you get a really deep sleep. So what the hell. Anyway, so far I have not noticed any reduced carb cravings, but my dreams last night were spectacular.
I had the most intense sex with Hugh Grant (of all people - I have never been attracted to him ever, but we had great sex - I woke up glowing), then I met up with my ex-boyfriend (box of wine guy) and he (in the over ten years since we last saw each other) has learned to speak fluent Japanese (he was surrounded by Japanese women) and to knit. Very strange. Then I shot a bunch of terrorists. That took place in superslo motion. And everything was in vivid color.
I woke up full of energy. Apparently it is safe (although usual disclaimers apply)
