    • Natural l-5-HTP extracted from Griffonia simplicifolia beans.

    l-5-Hydroxytryptophan is the precursor to serotonin‚ a mood and appetite regulating neurotransmitter produced within the body. It has been combined with Vitamin C and Vitamin B6‚ an important cofactor in the conversion to serotonin.

    Nature's Way uses natural l-5-HTP extracted from Griffonia simplicifolia beans produced in easy-to-swallow‚ enteric-coated tablets to minimalize any potential gastric discomfort.

    Very Good Product

    I have used this produce before. It was recommeanded by a Dr. years ago. Recently I was having trouble sleeping and some things and I remembered to get the 5-HPT. It does help me and I will be taking it for awhile.


    Pros

      I like the things that are in it and the fact that it helps me.

    Cons

      Nothing that I can think of, especially when I can get it at a good price from Pure Formula's. ANd, the shipping was great this time since it was near Christmas.

    √ I would recommend this item to a friend.
