5-Hydroxytryptophan, 5-HTP, is naturally produced in the body as a chemical by-product of the protein building block, L-trytophan.
5-HTP is also produced commercially as an extract from the seeds of an African native plant, Griffonia simplificola.
This supplement works by boosting the body's production of serotonin, by working with the brain and central nervous system. Serotonin produced by the body affects our sleep, appetite, body temperature, sexual behavior and pain sensation.
Sleep disorders, depression, anxiety, migraine headaches, fibromyalgia, binge eating, obesity, PMS, ADHS and PMDD are all potentially treated by 5-HTP.
5-HTP has also been used along with other medications to help with seizure disorders and Parkinson's disease.
Evidence has shown that 5-HTP may be beneficial in treating depression as well as fibromyalgia symptoms including pain, morning stiffness and sleeplessness.
While there is insufficient research to support it, some studies show that 5-HTP may reduce anxiety.
Similarly, some studies show that 5-HTP may help reduce appetite, caloric intake and weight in obese people.
