Supplementation with 5-HTP has been shown to increase serotonin levels in the central nervous system. The essential amino acid, tryptophan is converted into 5-HTP by the enzyme tryptophan hydroxylase. Tryptophan hydroxylase can be inhibited by a number of factors including stress, insulin resistance, pyridoxine (vitamin B6) deficiency, and insufficient magnesium levels. Supplementation with 5-HTP bypasses the conversion of tryptophan to 5-HTP and thus supports optimal levels of serotonin. 5-HTP also readily crosses the blood-brain barrier and bypasses competition with other amino acids, making it a more efficient precursor for serotonin production.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e5-HTP is an amino acid that plays an important role in the production of serotonin, a neurotransmitter known to be associated with the feeling of well-being. In addition to supporting a healthy mental outlook and mood, studies have also shown serotonin to encourage deeper sleep and to support healthy appetite regulation. Unlike oral serotonin, 5-HTP is able to effectively cross the blood-brain barrier and increase synthesis of serotonin in the central nervous system. 5-HTP is extracted naturally from the seed of the African plant\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eGriffonia simplicifolia\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSuggested Use:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1 or more capsules per day or as recommended by your health care professional.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"product-details-container-left\" class=\"col-lg-7 p-4\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-role=\"product-info-content\" data-val-for=\"benefits\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMood and Comfort\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdequate levels of serotonin are associated with a sense of calmness and relaxation.

In addition, 5-HTP promotes the release of melatonin by the pineal gland inside the brain and increases the length of REM. In children, supplementation with 5-HTP may help support peaceful sleep and decrease the incidence of night terrors. 5-HTP has also been found to raise plasma cortisol levels, causing a transient increase in growth hormone (at 150 mg dose) and, in men only, to support healthy levels of thyroid stimulating hormone.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAppetite Regulation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e5-HTP has been found to assist with carbohydrate cravings. 5-HTP is known to support normal hypothalamic regulation, which includes appetite homeostasis.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved the use of L-carnitine in hemodialysis patients for the prevention and treatment of L-carnitine deficiency.
