5-HTP 100mg 60c by Pure Encapsulations 

5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) is an essential amino acid intermediate synthesized naturally from the enzyme tryptophan hydroxylase, which adds a hydroxyl group (OH) to tryptophan. In the body, it is then converted to serotonin with the removal of a carboxyl group (COOH) by a second enzyme. Serotonin is a key neurotransmitter involved in the regulation of endocrine and brain activity, impacting emotion, appetite, and sleep/wake cycles. Taking 5-HTP as a dietary supplement may offer a range of health benefits, including improved mood, better sleep, and enhanced appetite control. The 5-HTP used in this supplement is sourced from the Griffonia simplicifolia plant. It is uniquely formulated to deliver the highest quality 5-HTP in a safe and effective manner. This supplement is free of synthetic additives and may provide a natural, healthier alternative to pharmaceuticals that may have unwanted side effects. It is important to note that 5-HTP is not approved by the FDA and should not be used to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
