5-HTP 200 MG 120 TABS NATURAL FACTORS
Natural Factors 5-HTP 200 mg provides a higher dose of this free-form amino acid in convenient timed-release tablets. 5-HTP is a direct precursor to serotonin, a neurotransmitter with important roles in mood, sleep, and fibromyalgia pain tolerance. Although the body produces serotonin, the building blocks it needs are often insufficient.
As a supplement, 5-HTP helps promote healthy mood balance and is used as a sleep aid. It also helps relieve symptoms of fibromyalgia and helps reduce the severity and duration of migraine headaches when taken preventatively.
5-HTP is naturally sourced from the seeds of the African plant Griffonia simplicifolia and delivered in timed-release tablets that provide a steady and lasting increase in serotonin levels. This format minimizes the risk of rapid spikes or drops that can occur with immediate-release forms of 5-HTP, which is important for individuals looking to promote emotional balance.
This higher-potency 5-HTP supplement is a wonderful option for individuals who struggle with emotional balance and sleep. Each tablet contains 200 mg of 5-HTP to increase serotonin levels without the risk of dependence. It is third-party ISURA® tested for purity and potency, non-GMO, and suitable for vegetarians and vegans.
