5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) is an amino acid vital to the production of the neurotransmitter serotonin. Low serotonin is linked to many common conditions including depression, obesity, sleeplessness, migraines, and fibromyalgia.
Supplementing with 5-HTP provides natural support for emotional well-being, and caplets are enteric-coated to minimize gastric discomfort and optimize absorption.
Suggested Use
1 caplet 2-3 times daily with meals or as directed by a health professional. To minimize the risk of gastrointestinal side effects, slowly increase the dose over a period of 2 weeks.
Warnings
As with any supplement, consult your healthcare professional before use if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or trying to conceive, or if you are taking medication, have a medical condition, or anticipate surgery.
