5-HTP Products

5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) is a naturally occurring amino acid. It is the intermediate step between tryptophan and the important brain chemical serotonin. 5-HTP, also known as oxitriptan, helps calm anxiety, improves mood, controls appetite, and is a sleep aid.

5-HTP (5-Hydroxytryptophan) is produced as a by-product of L-tryptophan, a protein building block. It can also be created using the seeds of an African plant known as Griffonia simplicifolia. 5-HTP supplements work within the brain and through the central nervous system by causing an increase in serotonin production. Serotonin is a natural chemical that can affect your experience of pain, sleep patterns, sexual behavior, temperature, appetite, and moods.

Because 5-HTP causes an increase in serotonin synthesis, 5-HTP supplements are very useful in dealing with various conditions such as obesity, insomnia and other sleep disorders, depression, anxiety, and other mood-related disorders, migraine headaches, tension headaches, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, fibromyalgia, premenstrual syndrome, premenstrual dysphoric disorder, seizure disorders, and even Parkinson's disease.

It is essential to consult your physician before using these supplements. By following the advice of your health care professional and using high-quality 5-HTP supplements from Vita Living, you can be sure of having a positive experience with 5-HTP.
