5-HTP, short for 5-hydroxytryptophan, is a derivative of the amino acid
tryptophan, and is converted in the brain, into the neurotransmitter
serotonin which influences everything from appetite, to mood, to sleep.
We
are delighted to introduce 5-HTP to the Lamberts® range and use a
natural source, extracted from the seeds of Griffonia simplicifolia.
Each
tablet provides a full 100mg of 5-HTP and with so many practitioners
recommending this nutrient, we think you will find our 5-HTP an
invaluable product for your practice.
Typically per tablet:
L-5-Hydroxytrytophan 100mg
(natural extract from the seeds of Griffonia simplicifolia)
