The Introductction of 5-Hydroxytryptophan(5-HTP) Powder

5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP), is an amino acid. It acts as a precursor to 5-hydroxytryptamine (serotonin, 5-HT) (and subsequently to melatonin) in the human body. Some double-blind studies have shown that 5-HTP can increase serotonin concentrations in the brain, improve depression and melatonin formation, improve sleep quality, and suppress appetite, but these studies are still problematic. Therefore, more studies are still needed to confirm whether 5-HTP has these physiological effects. Cana seeds are rich in 5-hydroxytryptophan, which is currently the main natural source of 5-HTP production.

5-HTP can be converted into serotonin in the body, but serotonin cannot cross the blood-brain barrier to enter the brain, so 5-HTP must first pass through the blood-brain barrier and then be converted into serotonin in the brain before it can truly play a role in stabilizing mood and promoting sleep quality. Only about one-third to one-half of the oral 5-HTP can actually be converted into serotonin in the brain, and most of it will be converted into serotonin before entering the blood circulation of the brain, which has no positive physiological effect.

Several studies have shown that 5-HTP has some physiological effects. According to clinical studies, 5-HTP can significantly improve the mood of patients with depression, and 5-HTP can also promote sleep quality and improve mild insomnia. Clinical studies have also shown that 5-HTP has a pain-relieving effect and can improve the discomfort of some patients with myofibromyalgia, and also has a role in improving chronic stress headaches. The increase in the concentration of enkephalin can make the body feel relaxed and happy. A clinical study on 19 obese women found that an average of 5% weight loss was achieved with 8 mg of 5-HTP per kilogram of body weight per day for five weeks without diet prescription. Similar results have been reported in other clinical studies of longer duration and in non-insulin-dependent diabetes, so 5-HTP may indeed be used as an appetite control aid in obese individuals. However, it is worth noting that the strength of this evidence is still insufficient and the physiological role of 5-HTP remains controversial.

The Application & Function of 5-Hydroxytryptophan(5-HTP) Powder

5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) can be converted to 5_hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), also known as serotonin, by decarboxylation with the help of vitamin B6 in the body. 5-hydroxytryptophan is a precursor of the neurotransmitter 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), which and its metabolites are biologically active and involved in intercellular signaling and in a variety of activities in the body, depression, sleep, appetite, and pain in humans. 5-hydroxytryptophan is found in the brain, blood platelets, gut, and central nervous system, and is an important chemical in the brain that controls mood, behavior, appetite, sleep, and impulsivity.

5-Hydroxytryptophan is effective in helping to produce complex amines and therefore promotes emotional and neurological health. Studies have shown that 5-hydroxytryptophan suppresses appetite, reduces fat intake, reduces anxiety, controls mood, and promotes sleep. It is also found as a food ingredient in many dietary proteins. 5-hydroxytryptophan is a natural alternative to the prescription drug Prozac. Drugs like Prozac prevent brain cells from running out of serotonin too quickly, while 5-hydroxytryptophan increases serotonin production in brain cells, which is helpful for normal nerve and brain function. Serotonin can help with sleep and can also be effective in pain management. Therefore 5-hydroxytryptophan is also successfully used to treat sleep disorders. Since serotonin is the precursor of melatonin (a natural hormone that regulates sleep and wakefulness cycles), when serotonin levels are increased, melatonin levels are also increased, resulting in a more restful sleep. In addition, the use of 5-hydroxytryptophan can help suppress appetite, it can make the body consume less carbohydrates and feel fuller faster. 750 mg of 5-hydroxytryptophan per day can reduce carbohydrate absorption and not cause weight gain, thus achieving weight loss.
