5-HTP (5-hydroxytryptophan) is an amino acid produced naturally by the body and is responsible for increasing serotonin levels in the brain.

Boosts overall energy and awareness

Quietens anxiety

Helps with pain sensitivity

Description:

5-HTP occurs naturally in the body. Typically, people produce enough for regular functioning, but some require supplementation. 5-HTP dietary supplements aid in increasing serotonin levels in the brain, significantly affecting mood and behavior.

Because serotonin regulates mood and behavior, 5-HTP may improve: 

- Sleep

- Mood

- Anxiety

- Hunger

- Pain sensitivity

Since 5-HTP is naturally present in the body, supplementing with it is a clean, holistic way to increase serotonin levels.
