5-HTP (5-hydroxytryptophan) is an intermediate metabolite between the amino acid L-tryptophan and serotonin; 5-HTP is serotonin's immediate intracellular precursor. Serotonin is associated with positive mood and provides a substrate for the production of melatonin. 5-HTP is extracted from the bean of the African plant Griffonia simplicifolia, a natural vegetable source.

General Statements: All Other Content

5-HTP, also known as 5-hydroxytryptophan, is the amino acid deriviative of L-tryptophan that is the direct precursor of serotonin, a brain neurotransmitter. During the production of serotonin, tryptophan is made into 5-HTP, and then made into serotonin. Serotonin plays an important role in sleep, emotional moods, and appetite. It is also necessary for the production of melatonin, the main hormone responsible for the management of sleep. 5-HTP is extracted from the bean of the African plant Griffonia simplicifolia, and is therefore a natural vegetarian source. However, 5-HTP is not found in large amounts in the diet, and eating foods that contain tryptophan appears to not significantly increase 5-HTP levels. Supplementing with 5-HTP has been shown to help improve mood and may reduce occasional sleeplessness.
