5 Hydroxytryptophan
5-Hydroxytryptophan (SA503) by Thorne Research is an intermediate metabolite that enhances serotonin production.
Product Details
- Serotonin is associated with sleep regulation, mood, appetite, temperature, sexual behavior and pain sensation
- 5-HTP initiates the process of converting the essential amino acid L-tryptophan to serotonin
- 5-HTP has been shown to have a beneficial impact on mood, decreased carbohydrate cravings, fatigue, sleep enhancement and stress management
- Supplementation reduces the factors that can inhibit serotonin synthesis such as stress, insulin resistance, aging and vitamin C, folate and iron deficiencies
- Can be taken with meals without competing with other amino acids
- Includes vitamin B6 for optimal activity
