5-HTP capsules contain a natural source of L-5-Hydroxtryptophan extracted from the seeds of Griffonia plant.
Serotonin, an important brain neurotransmitter, is key in the regulation of appetite, mood, and melatonin production. The presence of serotonin in the brain is associated with a balanced emotional state. This is achieved in part by decreasing the activity of certain excitatory hormones, including dopamine and noradrenaline. Serotonin also acts as a satiety signal in the brain, thereby naturally regulating food intake.
Additionally, as a precursor of melatonin, serotonin is involved in regulating sleep patterns.

Super, Natural and Effective
by Motor City Mama
I take 1 tablet per day of 5-HTY, for about a year now. It has eliminated the bloat and gas that was creating discomfort and anxiety. I am an overactive person by nature and this has calmed me considerably and I sleep soundly now-with no morning fuzziness. Plus I lost 6 lbs.-and that bloat around my waist--without any change in diet. Wish I had discovered it sooner.
