5-HTP contains the bean extract of an African plant (Griffonia simplicifolia), and acts as an intermediate metabolite between the amino acid tryptophan and the neurotransmitter serotonin.
Tryptophan is converted to 5-HTP, which in turn is converted to serotonin. Both tryptophan and 5-HTP raise serotonin levels in the brain. Serotonin is a hormone that acts as a neurotransmitter and helps maintain a pleasant mood, aiding sleep, calming feelings of anxiety and tension, and relieving symptoms of depression.
Research studies show that serotonin is responsible for feelings of well-being, calmness, relaxation, confidence and concentration. It is useful in disorders such as depression, insomnia, fibromyalgia, headaches, as well as in cases of bulimic obesity. It can also help increase beta-endorphin levels, which is associated with a strong analgesic effect.
Additionally, 5-HTP supplementation has been shown to increase growth hormone (GH) levels, since serotonin itself stimulates GH secretion.
Now's 5-HTP 50 mg is a safe and effective dietary supplement to support a healthy mood and a good appearance!
