- Includes vitamin B6 for optimal activity
- Made without flowing agents that can inhibit bioavailability
5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) is the intermediate metabolite produced when the body initiates the process of converting the essential amino acid L-tryptophan to serotonin. Serotonin levels in the body are associated with the regulation of sleep, mood, aggression, appetite, temperature, sexual behavior, and pain sensation.
Supplementing with 5-HTP to facilitate serotonin production is preferable to supplementing with L-tryptophan because, unlike L-tryptophan, 5-HTP cannot be shunted into niacin or protein production. Supplementation with 5-HTP bypasses the conversion of L-tryptophan into 5-HTP by the enzyme tryptophan hydroxylase, the rate-limiting step in the synthesis of serotonin and a step that can be inhibited by a number of factors, including stress, insulin resistance, increasing age, and deficiencies of vitamin C, folate, and iron.
5-HTP is well absorbed when taken orally, with about 70 percent ending up in the bloodstream.
Intestinal absorption of 5-HTP does not require the presence of a transport molecule and is not affected by the presence of other amino acids; therefore, it may be taken with meals without reducing its effectiveness. 5-HTP easily crosses the blood-brain barrier and effectively increases central nervous system (CNS) synthesis of serotonin.
5-HTP has been shown to have a beneficial impact on mood, discomfort associated with fatigue, sleep, and carbohydrate craving. Numerous studies of individuals with negative mood status have shown significant positive response with 50-300 mg of 5-HTP daily.
To further facilitate serotonin production, Thorne Research’s 5-HTP formula contains pyridoxal 5-phosphate, the active form of vitamin B6 and the necessary cofactor for the conversion of 5-HTP to serotonin. 5-HTP is commercially produced by extraction from the seeds of the African plant, Griffonia simplicifolia.
Thorne Research 5-HTP 100 mg（90 vcaps）
增强血清素生产。
- 增加5-羟色胺水平睡眠增强，减少糖渴望和更好的压力管理
- 可以与膳食一起服用，而不与其他氨基酸竞争
- 包括维生素B6的最佳活性
- 不使用可抑制生物利用度的流动剂
5-羟色氨酸（5-HTP）是当身体启动将必需氨基酸L-色氨酸转化为5-羟色胺的过程时产生的中间代谢物。体内的血清素水平与睡眠，情绪，攻击，食欲，温度，性行为和疼痛感觉的调节相关。
补充5-HTP以促进5-羟色胺的产生优于补充L-色氨酸，因为与L-色氨酸不同，5-HTP不能分流到烟酸或蛋白质生产中。补充5-HTP绕过L-色氨酸转化为5-HTP通过酶色氨酸羟化酶，5-羟色胺的合成中的速率限制步骤和可以被许多因素抑制的步骤，包括应激，胰岛素抵抗，增加年龄，以及维生素C，叶酸和铁的缺乏。
5-HTP口服吸收良好，约70％在血液中。
5-HTP的肠吸收不需要运输分子的存在，并且不受其它氨基酸的存在的影响;因此，它可以与膳食一起服用而不降低其效力。 5-HTP容易穿过血脑屏障并有效地增加中枢神经系统（CNS）合成的5-羟色胺。
5-HTP已经显示对情绪，与疲劳，睡眠和碳水化合物渴望相关的不适有有益的影响。许多对负面情绪状态的个体的研究显示出显着的阳性反应，每天50-300mg的5-HTP。
为了进一步促进5-羟色胺的产生，Thorne Research的5-HTP配方含有吡哆醛5-磷酸，维生素B6的活性形式和将5-HTP转化为5-羟色胺的必需辅因子。 5-HTP通过从非洲植物Griffonia simplicifolia的种子中提取而商业生产。
