Platinum Naturals 5-HTP 60 Vegetarian Capsules

Description：

5-HTP is a precursor to serotonin, which has been known to improve mood balance and insomnia as well as act as an appetite suppressant.

What is 5-HTP?
5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) is an amino acid found naturally in the seeds of Griffonia simplicifolia, a medicinal plant native to West Africa. It cannot be obtained through food and has been used and researched clinically for three decades.

5-HTP is a direct precursor to the synthesis of serotonin, an important brain chemical that is involved in sleep, mood, anxiety, aggression, appetite, body temperate control and pain sensation.

Since 5-HTP increases the synthesis of serotonin, it is used for conditions where serotonin is believed to play an important role:

• Weight Loss: As serotonin levels increase, hunger diminishes and one can feel satiated (feel full quicker).
• Insomnia: 5-HTP has been found to be effective in promoting sleep because it promotes the release of the hormone melatonin–which regulates sleep.
• Fibromyalgia: Studies suggest that 5-HTP can largely improve the painful picture of primary Fibromyalgia.
• Headaches: Studies have demonstrated that taking a serotonin precursor such as 5-HTP is an effective way to treat tension-type and migraine headaches.
• Depression and Anxiety: 5-HTP raises serotonin levels in the brain. Serotonin is the key to regulating moods: the higher the levels, the happier one can feel.
