Description:
5-HTP (the common name for the compound 5-hydroxytryptophan) is a derivative of the amino acid tryptophan. A mood-enhancing chemical, 5-HTP has attracted a good deal of attention lately because of its ability to increase pain tolerance, induce sleep, and affect how hunger is perceived.

In 1994, 5-HTP is a nutrient that helps curb appetite in some individuals. 5-HTP, by converting into serotonin, can be used temporarily to improve will power and decrease the urge to eat until more established weight loss habits are in place.

Main Function:
5-HTP is helpful in treating a wide variety of conditions related to low serotonin levels, including the following:
1. Improving in mood, anxiety, insomnia, and physical symptoms;
2. Reducing depressing and fibromyalgia;
3. Being effective in various types of headaches including tension headache and migraines;
4. Decreasing food intake and weight loss.
