5-HTP (5-hydroxy L-tryptophan) contains a naturally occurring metabolite of the amino acid tryptophan. 5-HTP is extracted from the seeds of the Griffonia simplicifolia plant. Vitamin B6 and Vitamin C are important co-factors in the 5-HTP's conversion to serotonin, a neurotransmitter substance found at the junctions (synapses) between neurons. 5-HTP provides support to help maintain mental and emotional well-being and promotes healthy sleep.
Doctor's Best 5-HTP is tested to ensure that it does not contain "Peak X". Vegan/Non-GMO/Gluten Free Science-Based Nutrition™

5htp is great. I'm not sure if I love the B6 and c being added. I will probably order just 5htp alone next time. I seem to have better results wi
...th my previous purchase, which did not include those. Otherwise, the 5htp part seems to work as expected.

I have been impressed with the quality of this brand of supplements and this 5-HTP is no exception. I was looking for something to help with relaxatio
...n and better sleep. 5HTP does the trick!
5 HTP is a known serotonin precursor and this is what helps us with mood and relaxation. This company is also putting B6 and Vitamin C in with the 5HTP because these vitamins help 5HTP to convert to serotonin. I am not convinced that they actually help, as they cannot cross the blood brain barrier and this is why I am giving it a 4 instead of 5 star rating. However, if you are lacking in these supplements, it may be a real positive for you.

Let's face it, getting old is no picnic. This supplement adds whatever time and injury has taken away to this old body of mine, and helps me to b

I get weather triggered migraines and 5 HTP helps immensely with controlling with these headaches. I used to take multiple doses a day, with Doctor�
...39;s Best 5 HTP I usually only have to take 1 or maybe 2 doses now and I am good to go even in a big storm system. I know some people use these for sleep but I wouldn't want to be without them before a thunderstorm is due in a couple hours.

This is a natural aid for depression. You’re supposed to take me six when you take five HTP in this one has the basics included which is great.
Both
... of us take this to help with depression and I tell everyone about it. They really don’t believe me at first and I offered to buy it back from them if it doesn’t work. However when they take it it does work and they get relief! Helps keep you calm and helps you not to be agitated when under stress and the rest of the time. Went under a lot of stress may need to increase it to two times a day
