Description

Allergy Research Group 5-HTP 50 mg

Serotonin and Melatonin Precursor for Mood, Sleep, and Appetite Support

The amino acid L-5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) is created from L-Tryptophan in the body and is a precursor to serotonin and melatonin. Allergy Research Group's 5-HTP is derived from a plant source and is carefully tested to ensure its purity and to guarantee the absence of contaminants.

5-HTP 50 mg provides 50 mg of L-5-hydroxytryptophan per capsule to support healthy mood, restful sleep, and balanced appetite.* As a direct precursor to serotonin and melatonin, 5-HTP supports neurotransmitter pathways involved in emotional well-being, circadian rhythm regulation, and satiety.

Ingredients

Other Ingredients: Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, microcrystalline cellulose, L-leucine.

Suggested Use

As a dietary supplement, 1 capsule one to three times daily, or as directed by a healthcare practitioner.

More Info

• L-5-Hydroxytryptophan (50 mg): Sourced from Griffonia simplicifolia seed and tested for purity, this amino acid crosses the blood-brain barrier and is converted to serotonin and melatonin.
  
• Mood Support: 5-HTP enhances serotonin activity in brain regions linked to emotion and cognition. Clinical trials using dosages of 150–400 mg per day support mood.
  
• Sleep Support: Supports deeper, more restful sleep by supporting melatonin levels via serotonin conversion. Trials in both children and adults show support of sleep quality and sleep architecture.
  
• Appetite Regulation: 5-HTP supports satiety by enhancing serotonin signaling in the hypothalamus, leading to reduced carbohydrate cravings and food intake.
  
• Gut-Brain Axis and Microbiome: Supplementation has been shown to increase serotonin levels and positively impact gut microbiome diversity, supporting the role of serotonin in both mood and digestive health.
  
• Pharmacokinetics: With a typical half-life of 2–5 hours, 5-HTP is often taken multiple times daily for sustained support.
  
• Purity and Source Assurance: Derived from Griffonia simplicifolia and free from known contaminants associated with improperly produced tryptophan derivatives. Each lot is rigorously tested for identity, purity, and quality.

5-HTP 50 mg is ideal for individuals seeking support for mood, sleep quality, or appetite regulation. It may be particularly helpful during periods of stress.

Sourced from Griffonia simplicifolia seed and tested for contaminants, this clean-label formula provides a clinically relevant, flexible-dose starting point for serotonin and melatonin support.
