Description:

5-htp (the common name for the compound 5-hydroxytryptophan) is a derivative of the amino acid tryptophan. A mood-enhancing chemical, 5-htp has attracted a good deal of attention lately because of its ability to increase pain tolerance, induce sleep, and affect how hunger is perceived. Unlike many other supplements (and drugs) that have molecules too large to pass from the bloodstream into the brain, molecules of 5-htp are small enough to do so.

Function:
1. Suppressing appetite
2. Enhancing sleep
3. Relieving anxiety and symptoms of seasonal affective disorders
4. Cognitive enhancement
5. Relief from migraine headaches
6. Reduction of heart disease by lowering rates of anxiety and depression

5-Hydroxytryptophan or 5-HTP is a naturally-occurring amino acid, a precursor to the neurotransmitter serotonin and an intermediate in tryptophan metabolism. It is marketed in the United States and other countries as a dietary supplement for use as an antidepressant,appetite suppressant, and sleep aid.
