5HTP (5-L-Hydroxytryptophan) is the direct metabolic precursor of serotonin, an important substance that supports normal nerve and brain function. Serotonin is found in the brain and central nervous system and appears to help with relaxation, maintain balanced sleep patterns, moods, appetite control and the inflammation response system. L-Tryptophan is an essential amino acid that is converted into L-5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) in the body. BodyBio’s 5-HTP is naturally derived from the seeds of the Griffonia simplicifolia, a West African plant. |
