5-HTP 100 mg Hydroxytryptophan

(5-HTP), also known as oxitriptan (INN), is a naturally occurring amino acid and chemical precursor as well as a metabolic intermediate in the biosynthesis of the neurotransmitters serotonin and melatonin from tryptophan.

5-HTP is extracted from Natural Griffonia Seed. It is an all-natural amino acid and once in the blood stream converts to serotonin. Serotonin is a mood and appetite regulating neurotransmitter produced within the body. It has been combined with Magnesium, Niacin, Valerian and Vitamin B-6. B-6 is an important nutrient in the conversion of serotonin. Proper levels of serotonin are associated with positive mood and a sense of well-being.**
