Resveratrol/5-htp/otc supplements?

Hello again! I'm still going strong... day 71 today. Something has me a little concerned though. I had taken an otc diet supplement that contains Resveratrol. I didn't realize that Resveratrol is derived from Japanese knotwood and *red wine grape extract* from the skin and seeds, according to the bottle. Does this mean it contains alcohol? I'm wondering if this means I've messed up my sobriety...

Also. I've been taking a daily dose if 5-htp, which is an otc supplement. It is a precursor to serotonin and is used for mood improvement. What are your thoughts on these sorts of things being used while in recovery? I'm just afraid of tainting my sobriety.....

Glad you're doing OK RIMH

I have no experience with either supplement, I'm afraid.
