Doctor's Best 5-HTP Enhanced with Vitamins B6 and C, Vegetable Capsules, 120-Count
- 5-HTP (5-hydroxy l-tryptophan) is a naturally occurring metabolite of the amino acid tryptophan
- 5-HTP helps maintain mental and emotional well-being and promotes healthy sleep
- 5-HTP is extracted from the seeds of the griffonia simplicifolia plant
5-HTP functions as the precursor for serotonin, a monoamine neurotransmitter found in the central nervous system (CNS) and some cells of the digestive tract. In the body, 5-HTP is formed by the addition of a hydroxyl group (–OH) to tryptophan, a reaction catalyzed by the enzyme tryptophan hydroxylase. This enzyme can be hindered by stress and conditions such as vitamin B6 deficiency, which is one reason B6 is included in this formula. Additionally, pyridoxal phosphate (vitamin B6) is necessary
