from a small protein building block called tryptophan. 5-HTP helps the
body to make the important feel good brain chemical called serotonin
and the vital sleep hormone, melatonin. Supplementation with 5-HTP
can help boost these important brain chemicals which in turn promote a
healthy mood, better sleep and a reduction in the sensation of pain.
Those with fibromyalgia may find some relief from their symptoms. As
well, 5-HTP can be used to help both prevent migraine headaches and
reduce their severity once they occur. Orange Natural’s 5-HTP is
naturally derived from the African plant griffonia simplicifolia and is
enhanced with vitamin B6 and magnesium which are important co-factors to
help the body convert and utilize 5-HTP.
