5-HTP, NOW Foods

5-HTP (5-hydroxytryptophan) is an amino acid obtained from the seeds of the African Griffonia plant. 5-HTP is a direct precursor of serotonin — the main neurotransmitter that regulates mood. 5-hydroxytryptophan is one of the best natural remedies for increasing serotonin levels in the brain. 5-HTP raises the levels not only of serotonin but also of endorphins and other neurotransmitters that improve mood. Its positive effect on mood has been confirmed in many double-blind studies. 5-HTP is also a good choice for sleep problems. Additionally, 5-HTP can greatly help reduce carbohydrate intake and support weight loss.
