Oxford Vitality - 5-HTP Powder 99.5% 10g for Depression, Anxiety and Insomnia Catalogue Number: 260-0022

5-HTP (5-Hydroxytryptophan) is vital to the body and the brain's vital functions. The brain produces neurotransmitters such as serotonin and melatonin which both play vital roles in mood, sleep, appetite and concentration as well as many other brain and body functions.


5-HTP (5-Hydroxytryptophan) is not found naturally in foods and can only be taken as a supplement. For the body to produce 5-HTP it has to get L-tryptophan from food and convert it in to 5-HTP (5-Hydroxytryptophan). L-tryptophan can be found in a wide variety of foods but tends to be particularly prominent in chocolate, oats, dried dates, milk, yogurt, cottage cheese, red meat, eggs, fish, poultry, sesame, chickpeas, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, spirulina, bananas, and peanuts. Oxford Vitality's 5-HTP (5-Hydroxytryptophan) should be taken in conjunction with a healthy, varied and balanced diet. If you are unsure whether or not you should be taking 5-HTP we recommend that you seek the assistance of your healthcare practitioner.


Oxford Vitality's 5-HTP powder is to be taken in 100mg servings. Oxford Vitality's 5-HTP is extracted from the seeds of Griffonia.
