This 5-HTP formula increases serotonin levels to support better sleep, balanced mood, and reduced sugar cravings. Unlike basic tryptophan that competes with other amino acids for absorption, 5-HTP converts directly to serotonin where you need it most.
Why It Works
DIRECT CONVERSION: 5-HTP bypasses dietary protein competition and converts straight to serotonin in your brain.
ACTIVE B6 INCLUDED: Contains pyridoxal 5'-phosphate, the bioactive form of B6 that your body actually uses for serotonin synthesis.
FLEXIBLE TIMING: Can be taken with meals without amino acid interference, unlike tryptophan supplements.
What's Inside
Each capsule delivers 50mg of 5-HTP plus 3.4mg of pyridoxal 5'-phosphate in a clean formula. Made without flowing agents that can reduce bioavailability.
Why we carry it: Thorne's inclusion of active B6 cofactor and commitment to bioavailable formulations makes this more effective than standard 5-HTP products.
Each Capsule Contains: 5-Hydroxytryptophan 50 mg.
Vitamin B6 (pyridoxal 5'-phosphate) 3.4mg
Other Ingredients: Microcrystalline Cellulose, Hypromellose (derived from cellulose) capsule, Leucine, Silicon Dioxide.
Take 1-2 capsules three times daily or as recommended by a health-care practitioner.
Rather than take a selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitor (SSRI), I started taking 5-HTP, a precursor of serotonin. The Thorne brand is the most effective I have tried and works very well.

I have been taking Griffonia for many years now and it has helped me get a good nights sleep. I like that there is no residual effects the next day.
