Now Foods 5-HTP 100mg 60Veg Capsules

• Supports Positive Mood

NOW Foods 5-HTP is a plant source of amino acids that naturally support the production of serotonin in the central nervous system. 5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-Hydroxy-L-Tryptophan) is the intermediate metabolite between the amino acid tryptophan (L-Tryptophan) and the neurotransmitter serotonin (Seroton). High levels of serotonin in the body improve sleep and boost mood. It is therefore mainly used to regulate the circadian rhythm of the body and to treat anxiety and depression..

5-HTP promotes a deep and restful sleep. Sleep is a very important factor in the recovery process of the body after intense exercise. Taking 5-HTP supplements helps increase serotonin levels, and allows athletes to relax and reduce stress during an intense workout. The action of 5-HTP reduces the time it takes the body to fall asleep and increases the stages of REM sleep to achieve deeper sleep. This allows the body to recover and increase energy levels.

Note: NOW 5-HTP is derived from Griffonia simplicifolia seed extract, and is of high purity.
