Product Description

5-hydroxytryptophan is an compound with the molecular formula C11H12N2O3. It is an amino acid substance that can be used as a precursor of 5-hydroxytryptamine in the human body, so it is considered to help increase 5-hydroxytryptamine levels. It can be used as a precursor of 5-hydroxytryptamine (serotonin, 5-HT) in the human body (and in turn as a precursor of melatonin). Some double-blind studies have shown that 5-HTP can increase the concentration of serotonin in the brain, improve depression and promote the formation of melatonin, improve sleep quality, and suppress appetite. Griffonia seeds are rich in 5-hydroxytryptophan and are currently the main natural source of 5-HTP.
