Product description:

Plays a key role as a precursor to serotonin
Extracted from the Griffonia simplicifolia shrub
Supports mood, quality of sleep, relaxation process

In the whirlwind of everyday duties and the constant rush, we all need a moment of rest - a moment in which we can recharge our batteries. In this context, it is worth looking at the supplement 5-HTP (Hydroxytryptophan) 200 mg 120 Veg Capsules from Now Foods! 5-HTP, or 5-hydroxytryptophan, is an amino acid formed in the body from tryptophan, which plays a key role in the synthesis of serotonin, known as the happiness hormone. One of the richest natural sources of 5-HTP, also used in this supplement, is Griffonia simplicifolia, an African shrub with beautiful green flowers and distinctive black pods. The plant has been and continues to be used in traditional medicine for centuries due to its health benefits. The supplement formula has been enriched with ingredients that act synergistically with hydroxytryptophan, such as vitamins B3 and B6, glycine, taurine and inositol. What's more, the whole thing is encapsulated in a convenient capsule, making it easy to incorporate the supplement into your daily routine.

As a key precursor to serotonin, 5-HTP plays an important role in regulating mood and overall wellbeing. Known as the happiness hormone, serotonin influences emotional stability, appetite and sleep, and adequate levels are key to maintaining mental balance. Thanks to the biphasic action of 5-HTP - first raising serotonin levels and then supporting melatonin production - this supplement can effectively improve sleep quality. Melatonin, a hormone produced by the pineal gland, regulates the sleep-wake cycle and its synthesis begins with the conversion of serotonin. Additionally, 5-HTP can reduce perceived stress and induce a state of relaxation, which promotes calmer and more restorative sleep. The enrichment of the formula with vitamins B3 and B6 supports the conversion of 5-HTP into serotonin, while glycine and taurine, as amino acids with calming effects, further support relaxation and sleep quality. Inositol, meanwhile, improves the sensitivity of serotonin receptors, enhancing its effects.

Reach for 5-HTP and allow yourself a moment of relaxation!
