Product Description:
- The serotonin levels in the body are associated with the regulation of sleep, mood, and appetite. A balanced serotonin level has been shown to support restful sleep, good mood, and decreased sugar cravings.
- There are several ways to support a healthy serotonin level. L-tryptophan and 5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) are both precursors to serotonin.
Product Benefits:
Ideal support to optimize serotonin level.
Plays a key role in mood, sleep & fatigue enhancement.
Rich with 5-Hydroxytryptophan & Vit B6.
90 Capsules.
Take 1-2 capsules three times daily.
- However, supplementation with 5-HTP is preferable, because, unlike L-tryptophan, 5-HTP cannot be shunted into other uses in the body, such as niacin or protein production.
- 5-HTP is well absorbed by the body and easily crosses the blood-brain barrier where it can increase the synthesis of serotonin in the central nervous system. And 5-HTP can be taken with meals without reducing its effectiveness.
- 5-HTP has been shown to have a beneficial impact on mood, sleep, carbohydrate cravings, and discomfort associated with fatigue.
- To further facilitate serotonin production, Thorne's 5-HTP formula contains pyridoxal 5'-phosphate, the active form of vitamin B6 and the necessary cofactor for the conversion of 5-HTP to serotonin.
- 5-HTP is commercially produced by extraction from the seeds of the African plant, Griffonia simplicifolia.
