What is 5-HTP?
5-HTP (5-Hydroxytryptophan) is the intermediate metabolite the body produces when converting the essential amino acid L-tryptophan to serotonin. It's a serotonin precursor that can be taken directly, bypassing the tryptophan hydroxylase rate-limiting step. Thorne's 5-HTP is extracted from the seeds of the African plant Griffonia simplicifolia.
Why 5-HTP instead of L-tryptophan?
Unlike L-tryptophan, 5-HTP cannot be shunted into other uses in the body such as niacin or protein production. 5-HTP bypasses the tryptophan hydroxylase enzyme step (the rate-limiting step in serotonin synthesis, which can be inhibited by stress, insulin resistance, aging, and deficiencies of vitamin C, folate, and iron). 5-HTP crosses the blood-brain barrier and can be taken with meals without reducing effectiveness.
What is Peak X and is this Peak X-free?
Peak X is a contaminant associated with some 5-HTP products. Thorne's 5-HTP is Peak X-free — each lot is thoroughly tested for contaminants, including Peak X.
Can I take it with antidepressants?
5-HTP should be used with caution in an individual currently being treated with an SSRI, MAO inhibitor, or other antidepressant medication. Consult your health-care practitioner before combining.
