5 HTP
(5-Hydroxy-tryptophan)
Formula #78787 120 Capsules
Each veggie capsule contains 100 mg of pure 5-Hydroxy-tryptophan, a naturally occurring modified amino acid from a plant origin. Common uses: Relieves depression, helps overcome insomnia, aids in weight control, treats migraine headaches and may ease the pain of fibromyalgia. In one study 20 obese patients took either 5-HTP or a placebo for 12 weeks. In 12 weeks time, those on 5-HTP lost 12 pounds compared with barely two pounds for the placebo group. 5-HTP works by increasing the seratonin secretion in the brain. Seratonin decreases the appetite.
