5-HTP
50mg
5-HTP, the intermediate Metabolic Aid between the amino acid L-tryptophan and serotonin, is extracted from the seed of an African plant (Griffonia simplicifolia). 5-HTP readily crosses the blood-brain barrier and increases central nervous system (CNS) synthesis of serotonin. Serotonin can affect Restful-Restful-Sleep, and many other important biological functions.
