5HTP (5-Hydroxytryptophan) is made in the body from L-tryptophan and can be converted to serotonin. 5-HTP readily crosses the blood-brain barrier and promotes serotonin levels in the brain, which help create healthy functioning of the sleep/wake cycle and a positive mood.* Along with emotional well-being, appetite control may also be affected in a positive manner.* Vital Nutrients 5HTP is naturally derived from the seeds of the Griffonia simplicifolia plant.
