Mood and serotonin support
- Provides 5-HTP, an absorbable precursor to serotonin
- Improves sleep patterns & helps alleviate migraines
- Flexible dosing options for varying needs
5-HTP stands for L-5-hydroxytryptophan, which comes from the amino acid tryptophan found in many proteins and the seeds of an African plant known as Griffonia simplicifolia. 5-HTP is primarily used to support mood through its ability to increase serotonin – the neurotransmitter associated with happiness – and the neurohormone melatonin. It can also be used for several conditions where serotonin is believed to play an important role.
5-HTP has been compared to various antidepressants and has been found to be as effective and faster-acting with fewer side effects. Since serotonin and melatonin are involved in regulating the sleep/wake cycle, 5-HTP can enhance sleep quality. Additionally, research supports a role for 5-HTP in reducing headaches and the symptoms of fibromyalgia. Several clinical trials with 5-HTP have confirmed significant improvements in symptoms associated with fibromyalgia including pain, morning stiffness, nervousness, and fatigue.
Ultimately, those who suffer with mood imbalances such as low mood and anxiety, or from migraines, fibromyalgia or sleep disorders may benefit from taking 5-HTP.

Discussion
5-HTP is 5-hydroxytryptophan, a metabolite of tryptophan and an essential precursor of serotonin and melatonin. Research supports a role for 5-HTP in supporting mood balance and relieving the symptoms of fibromyalgia. AOR’s 5-HTP is naturally-sourced from the seeds of the griffonia shrub.
Adult Dosage
하루 3번 식사와 함께 한 알씩 섭취하세요. 부작용을 최소화 하기 위해 소량부터 시작하여 2주 단위로 증상을 살펴가며 복용량을 늘려가시면 됩니다. 불면증 또는 기분에 유익한 효과를 보기 위해 최소 1주일, 섬유근유통증 완화를 위해 2주 동안 사용하세요.

Some people may experience gastrointestinal disturbances such as diarrhea, nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain.
