5-HTP is a derivative of the amino acid tryptophan. Our body produces its own supply of 5-HTP from tryptophan, an amino acid found in high-protein foods such as chicken, fish, beef, and dairy products. 5 HTP is a mood-enhancing chemical that may induce sleep, regulates mood, and control appetite. Unlike many other supplements (and drugs) that have molecules too large to pass from the bloodstream into the brain, molecules of 5-HTP are small enough to do so. Once in the brain, they're converted into serotonin.L-5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) is a precursor to Serotonin, that may increase serotonin levels to promote healthy sleep pattern, regulate mood, and control appetite. Europeans have been taking 5-HTP for decades to treat insomnia and depression.
