Description
What is Doctor's Best 5-HTP?, 5-HTP supports serotonin levels in the brain. 5-HTP is a natural metabolite of the essential amino acid tryptophan and functions as a precursor for serotonin. It is derived from the seeds of the African plant Griffonia simplicifolia, is free of synthetic ingredients and has a high level of purity. 5-HTP is the immediate precursor of serotonin and converts directly to serotonin in the brain. , How does it work?, In the body, 5-HTP is formed from tryptophan by the addition of an “OH group, which gives 5-HTP its antioxidant properties. Whereas tryptophan may be sidetracked into the production of niacin or protein, 5-HTP readily crosses the blood-brain barrier and becomes available for serotonin synthesis. Therefore, supplementation with 5-HTP is a more direct route to serotonin production. , Why should I take Doctor's Best 5-HTP?, Many people suffer from depleted serotonin levels, and that negatively affects our mood and sleep patterns.
