Source Naturals 5-HTP How it Works 5-HTP works because it supports your body’s balanced production of two important regulating hormones, serotonin and melatonin. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that helps regulate , moods and appetite. But you need adequate serotonin levels to maintain this balance. 5-HTP is the serotonin precursor that is formed when tryptophan is converted into serotonin in your body. In clinical research, 5-HTP increased the a and availability of serotonin produced by the body. It is able to cross the blood brain–barrier to increase both serotonin levels and serotonin production in your brain so you can regain a y balance when you are ing, feeling emotions, or eating. Eventually, the serotonin in your body is converted into melatonin, the hormone that helps regulate y 24-hour cycles known as circadian rhythms. Aging and various forms of physical or emotional stress can decrease your melatonin levels and disrupt your cycle. Fortunately, that balance can be regained. When 5-HTP increases serotonin production, melatonin production is also increased, which can help you regain a y circadian rhythm.
