Now 5-HTP 50 mg 30 Veg Caps

Now 5-HTP 50 mg is a dietary supplement with 5-hydroxytryptophan. 5-HTP is the hydroxylated form of the amino acid tryptophan, which is found in protein foods such as meat and dairy products.

The body produces 5-HTP from tryptophan, which is then converted in the brain to the neurotransmitter serotonin. Serotonin is one of the most basic neurotransmitters in the body, participating in many biochemical reactions and conditions such as sleep regulation, depression-mood, stress and nervousness, appetite, body temperature, pain sensation.

Studies have shown that it can help with depression, myalgia, overeating, headaches and insomnia.

Suitable for vegetarians.
