Product Introduction
5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) is a derivative of the amino acid tryptophan. A mood-enhancing chemical, 5-HTP has attracted a good deal of attention lately because of its ability to increase pain tolerance, induce sleep, and affect how hunger is perceived. 5-HTP dietary supplements help raise serotonin levels in the brain. Since serotonin helps regulate mood and behavior, 5-HTP may have a positive effect on sleep, mood, anxiety, appetite, and pain sensation . In 1994, 5-htp was introduced in the USA. Europeans have been taking 5-HTP for decades to treat insomnia and depression . 
What's 5-Hydroxytryptophan/5-HTP?

5-HTP comes from the beans of Griffonia Seed, a vine native to Africa. In African folk medicine, Griffonia Seed is reputed to be an aphrodisiac, as well as an antibiotic and a remedy for diarrhea, vomiting, and stomachache. Recent research suggests that Griffonia Seed raises serotonin levels in the brain. Serotonin is important in regulating brain chemistry and is especially important in problems such as depression, insomnia, and eating disorders. Theoretically, supplementing with Griffonia Seed can raise serotonin levels and provide relief from depression and insomnia.

Why take 5-HTP?

5-HTP help raise serotonin levels in the brain, serotonin helps regulate mood and behavior.
5-HTP may have a positive effect on sleep, mood, anxiety, and appetite.

How does it work?

5-HTP is formed from tryptophan by the addition of an -OH group, which gives 5-HTP its antioxidant properties.
5-HTP readily crosses the blood-brain barrier and becomes available for serotonin synthesis. Therefore, supplementation with 5-HTP is a more direct route to serotonin production.
