5-HTP, the intermediate metabolite between the amino acid L-tryptophan and serotonin, is extracted from the seed of an African plant (Griffonia simplicifolia). 5-HTP readily crosses the blood-brain barrier and increases central nervous system (CNS) synthesis of serotonin. Serotonin can affect sleep, appetite, temperature, sexual behaviour, and pain sensation. Through its effects on mood and cravings for food via seratonin, 5-HTP can help manage weight. This low-glycemic chewable form is safe for those controlling blood sugar.

These 5-HTP chewables are pretty decent. The tablets are easy to take and seem to work well for me. I appreciate that Pharmacy 24 had a fair price, and their delivery was quick without any hassle. Customer service was helpful when I had a question about the product.
