What It Does
CanPrev's 5-HTP supports healthy serotonin production for balanced mood and natural sleep patterns. Unlike tryptophan from food sources, 5-HTP crosses directly into your brain where it converts to serotonin — the neurotransmitter that regulates mood, appetite, and sleep cycles.
Why It Works
-
DIRECT PATHWAY: 5-HTP bypasses competition from other amino acids, ensuring more efficient serotonin production than tryptophan alone.
-
COFACTOR SUPPORT: Added B6 and magnesium optimize the conversion process — many formulations skip these critical helpers.
-
GRIFFONIA SOURCE: Naturally extracted from African Griffonia simplicifolia seeds, providing the most bioavailable form of 5-HTP.
What's Inside
Clean vegetarian formula with just the active ingredients and minimal excipients. Each capsule delivers 100mg of 5-HTP plus the cofactors your body needs. NPN N/A. Made in Canada.
Why we carry it: CanPrev's addition of B6 and magnesium cofactors actually improves results compared to standalone 5-HTP supplements.
