Have you heard of 5-Hydroxytryptophan? It's a substance that your body produces when you consume tryptophan‚ an essential amino acid. A 5-HTP supplement allows your body to benefit more quickly‚ because it provides the helpful compounds directly‚ without the need for the body to convert it into a useable form. There are no foods that contain 5-HTP; however‚ turkey‚ chicken‚ potatoes‚ milk‚ collard greens‚ potatoes‚ pumpkins‚ and sunflower seeds are among the dietary sources of tryptophan.
5-HTP may be important due to its involvement in sleep patterns. It is converted into a neurotransmitter called serotonin‚ which works to regulate behaviors and moods. Serotonin is involved in the wake/sleep cycles that allow your body to get the good night's rest it needs in order to repair itself at night. In addition‚ serotonin's involvement in brain activity may promote emotional well-being and lessen anxiety‚ while possibly helping moderate appetite and food cravings; the latter may help you maintain an already healthy weight as part of a diet and exercise regimen. Finally‚ 5-HTP may support comfort in the cranial vessel by aiding healthy blood circulation in the brain.
Pure Encapsulations' 5-HTP (5-Hydroxytryptophan) 100 mg gives you this needed ingredient. Each capsule provides 100 milligrams of 5-HTP‚ derived from an African herb called Griffonia simplicifolia. In some cases‚ it may also alleviate mild pain or stiffness while lessening fatigue.
