5 HTP Plus 60 capsules Plus from Ecogenetics

5 HTP Plus is provided by Ecogenetics N®, contains a synergistic combination of 5-HTP, vitamins, minerals and other nutrients designed to support mood and feelings of well-being.

5-HTP Plus can be a nutritional supplement for individuals who want support in mental function and increased serotonin levels in the brain.

Serotonin, an important brain neurotransmitter, is essential for regulating appetite, mood, and melatonin production. The presence of serotonin in the brain is associated with a state of emotional balance. This is achieved, in part, by decreasing the activity of certain excitatory hormones, including dopamine and norepinephrine.

Serotonin also acts as a satiety signal in the brain and, additionally, as a precursor to melatonin. Melatonin is involved in regulating sleep patterns.

5-HTP is a natural derivative of the seeds of the Griffonia plant, capable of crossing the blood-brain barrier without competition for absorption. 5-HTP is significantly more effective than tryptophan; a 50 mg capsule of 5-HTP is approximately equivalent to 500 mg of tryptophan.

Indications :

5 HTP Plus is a nutritional supplement for individuals who want to support mental function and increase serotonin levels in the brain.

Constituent Information

Folic acid: Prevents certain birth defects. Promotes circulatory and immune system function. Synthetic form of folate.

Pantothenic acid: Intervenes in cellular and energy metabolism. Promotes hormonal function. Chromium: Supports carbohydrate metabolism and fat control.

Phenylalanine: This is one of the essential amino acids for the human body, but it cannot be synthesized by the body itself, so it must be ingested. Phenylalanine serves to compose human cells and is an essential component of body tissues. It is essential for the body to maintain balance. It produces adrenaline and tyrosine in sufficient quantities for the body's health, as they are involved in a series of important biochemical reactions.

Ginkgo biloba: Traditionally used for a variety of brain-related problems—lack of concentration, forgetfulness, headaches, fatigue, mental confusion, depression, and anxiety. Ginkgo works by increasing blood flow to the brain and dopamine production.

Hydroxytryptophan: 5-hydroxytryptophan, or 5-HTP for short, is a medicine and natural amino acid that acts similarly to tryptophan. It is a precursor to the neurotransmitter serotonin, providing a sense of well-being. However, in its hydroxylated form, unlike tryptophan, it allows it to cross the blood-brain barrier and trigger the production of serotonin in the brain.

Magnesium: Strengthens bones and muscle function, plays a role in energy metabolism and heart rate regulation.

Niacin: Participates in obtaining energy from fats, carbohydrates and proteins. Participates in nerve function and the maintenance of healthy skin.

Riboflavin: Promotes energy production and nerve function.

Thiamine: Helps the body obtain energy from food. Promotes the maintenance of skeletal and cardiac muscles. Participates in the processes by which cells obtain energy and in nerve transmission.

L-tyrosine: This is the amino acid precursor to dopamine. And dopamine signifies pleasure and mental well-being.

Vitamin B12: Helps maintain proper cellular and nervous system function.

Vitamin B6: Participates in energy processes and the formation of red blood cells, strengthens the immune system and alleviates the symptoms of permenstrual syndrome.
