L-5-HTP directly supports your brain's serotonin production for balanced mood and restful sleep. This West African plant extract provides the immediate precursor your neurons need to manufacture calming neurotransmitters. The difference is bioavailability — 5-HTP crosses into your brain far more efficiently than its precursor tryptophan.
Why It Works
DIRECT CONVERSION: Unlike tryptophan, 5-HTP converts straight to serotonin without competing with other amino acids for transport.
PROVEN SOURCE: Griffonia simplicifolia seeds contain up to 20% natural 5-HTP — the richest plant source available.
MULTIPLE BENEFITS: Supports mood balance, sleep quality, and may help reduce migraine frequency when used preventively.
What's Inside
Each vegetarian capsule contains 100mg of L-5-HTP from authentic Griffonia simplicifolia seed extract. Clean formula with minimal excipients: microcrystalline cellulose, hypromellose, and magnesium stearate.
Why we carry it: Trophic sources genuine Griffonia simplicifolia — many competitors use synthetic versions that lack the plant's natural co-factors.
Adults, take 1 vcap 3 times daily with food or as recommended by a healthcare practitioner. To minimize the risk of gastrointestinal side effects, start dosing at 100 mg 2-3 times per day and slowly increase to effective dose over 2 week period.
