How effective is 5-HTP in anti depressants?

Maybe the first thing you need to know about 5-HTP is serotonin, a neurotransmitter in our brain that makes the brain feel good, and if you don't make enough of it, you get depressed. 

"5-htp works in the brain and central nervous system by increasing the production of the chemical serotonin. Serotonin can affect sleep, appetite, temperature, sexual behavior, and pain sensation. Since 5-HTP increases the synthesis of serotonin, it is used for several diseases where serotonin is believed to play an important role including depression, insomnia, obesity, And many other the conditions."Tryptophan is one of the active components of serotonin, and a lack of it can make the body feel depressed and angry. Therefore, people can get amino acids by eating some meat, nuts and dairy products. Of course, you can also take some tryptophan or 5-HTP supplements. 5-HTP is converted to serotonin by the aromatic amino acid decarboxylase, which can increase serotonin levels by taking 5-HTP. From the perspective of effect, I suggest that users should try their best to choose some regular big brands when choosing brands.
