- Derived from the seeds of an African woody climbing shrub plant called griffonia simplicifolia, a natural product with lots of health benefits.
The 5-HTP (5-hydroxytryptophan) is from an alpha-amino acid derived from tryptophan and can develop into a healthy neurotransmitter in the brain called serotonin. - The increased level of serotonin generated by the 5-HTP can help regulate depression and anxiety; hence, it induces a good mood.
Tryptophan from an increased serotonin neurotransmitter can function as an appetite suppressant, which is ideal for a weight loss program.
As the 5-HTP induces serotonin, it improves the melatonin hormone in the brain’s pineal gland, which is valuable in providing quality sleep and may aid insomnia. - The serotonin promoted by 5-HTP may relieve fibromyalgia symptoms such as widespread pain of the musculoskeletal system.
It is also used for modulating pain receptors such as headache and body pain.

- Calcium (as Calcium Carbonate) – it works well with amino acids such as tryptophan so that it can generate the serotonin neurotransmitter. This kind of mineral is also helpful in promoting healthy bones.
- 5-hydroxytryptophan (from griffonia simplicifolia seed extract) – the extracted seed is from an African plant, which provides natural agents in promoting good health. It is a naturally occurring amino acid that transforms tryptophan into serotonin, a healthy chemical for the brain cells.
- Magnesium Stearate – a kind of vegetable-derived stearic acid that makes the 5-hydroxytryptophan achieve its perfect consistency. This magnesium stearate act as a flow agent that prevents lumps from the chemical compounds in 5-hydroxytryptophan and in calcium carbonate.
