Almost 90% of the human body's total serotonin is located in the alimentary canal, where it is used to regulate peristalsis. In the central nervous system, neurons use serotonin to regulate various functions including mood, appetite and sleep. In humans, serotonin levels are affected by diet, specifically carbohydrate intake and the amino acid, tryptophan. Increased intake of tryptophan or its metabolic intermediate, 5-HTP, may increase serotonin levels and help support healthy mood and appetite as well as sleep through its role in serotonin\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIndications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e5-HTP may be a useful dietary supplement for those who want to support healthy normal mood and sleep\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSupplement Facts\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"supplement-facts\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"serving-size\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOne Capsule Contains\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"supplement-facts-table\" style=\"width:100%; max-width:480px; border-collapse:collapse; margin:12px 0;\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 8px 6px 0;\"\u003eVitamin C (as ascorbic acid)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align:right; white-space:nowrap; padding:6px 0 6px 16px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e250 mg\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 8px 6px 0;\"\u003eVitamin B-6 (as pyridoxine HCl)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align:right; white-space:nowrap; padding:6px 0 6px 16px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e25 mg\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 8px 6px 0;\"\u003eGriffonia bean extract (Griffonia simplicifolia) (Standardized to contain 98% [100 mg] L-5-hydroxytryptophan)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"text-align:right; white-space:nowrap; padding:6px 0 6px 16px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e102 mg\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"other-ingredients\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOther Ingredients:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gelatin and water (capsules), rice powder, silica and magnesium stearate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"allergen-info\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eThis product contains NO sugar, salt, dairy, yeast, wheat, gluten, corn, soy, preservatives, artificial colors or flavors.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSuggested Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a dietary supplement, adults take 1 capsule daily with meals, or as directed by a healthcare professional\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSide Effects\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWarning: Not for use by children under 18 years.
