NOW's 5-HTP supplement is a plant source of the amino acid (5-Hydroxy-L-Tryptophan), which naturally supports serotonin production in the central nervous system.
5-HTP 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. Therefore, 5-HTP in supplement form is mainly used for regulating the sleep-wake cycle and addressing anxiety and depression.
Taking the 5-HTP supplement helps increase serotonin levels and enables athletes to relax and reduce stress during intense training.
5-HTP not only reduces the time it takes for the body to fall asleep, but also increases REM sleep stages, leading to deeper sleep. This allows the body to recover and increase energy levels.
NOW's 5-HTP 100 mg dietary supplement is made from Griffonia seeds and is of high purity.
Recommended dosage: 1 capsule daily, preferably on an empty stomach before bedtime.
Packaging: 60 Vegetable Capsules
