| 5-HTP dietary supplements help raise serotonin levels in the brain. Since serotonin helps regulate mood and behavior, 5-HTP may have a positive effect on sleep, mood, anxiety, appetite, and pain sensation. 5-HTP is not found in the foods we eat, although tryptophan is found in foods.
Eating foods with tryptophan does not increase 5-HTP levels very much, however. As a supplement, 5-HTP is made from the seeds of an African plant called Griffonia simplicifolia. 5-HTP may help treat a wide variety of conditions related to low serotonin levels, including the following: Depression Fibromyalgia Insomnia Migraines and Other Headaches Obesity ** Talk to your provider before taking higher-than-recommended doses. People with high blood pressure or diabetes should talk to their doctor before taking 5-HTP. If you take antidepressants, you should not take 5-HTP People with liver disease, pregnant women, and women who are breastfeeding should not take 5-HTP.** |
