Beat stress and discover the secret to restful sleep with 5-HTP Prozac® alternative-Safely raise serotonin levels. 5-HTP is like L-Tryptophan but is only used by the brain and is considered 10 times more potent comparing mg to mg. Research has discovered a connection between depression, anxiety, violent behavior, even carbohydrate cravings, with a deficiency of serotonin in the brain. The amino acid, tryptophan, is converted to 5-HTP which is then converted to serotonin. But the only dietary strategy that can elevate the brain's supply of tryptophan is to consume mass quantities of carbohydrates. The result? Excessive weight gain! Studies show that 5-HTP can safely elevate serotonin production in the brain without the dangerous side effects of Rx drugs. Magnesium is added to this formula as a smooth muscle relaxant.
Available in three doses: 33 mg, 50 mg or 100 mg per capsule.
Dosage: 33 to 300 mg per day on an empty stomach, generally best to take at bedtime.
Caution: Consult your physician if you are taking other medications.
