What is 5-HTP?
Griffonia extract, as known as 5-Hydroxytryptophan(5-HTP), a kind of natural herb ingredient, is extracted from the seeds of Griffonia simplicifolia, a West African medicinal plant.
5-HTP is a natural amino acid in the human body and is also the chemical precursor of serotonin.
Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that helps make chemicals that make us feel good.
The human body produces serotonin through the following pathways: tryptophan → 5-HTP → serotonin.
What are the benefits of Griffonia extract?
1. Relieve fibromyalgia
Fibromyalgia is a disease characterized by soreness, muscle tenderness, fatigue, and restless sleep. A study suggests that 5-HTP may also be helpful for this disease. In this double-blind trial, 50 subjects with fibromyalgia were given 100 mg of 5-HTP or placebo three times a day. All 30 individuals experienced significant improvements, including pain, stiffness, sleep patterns, anxiety, and fatigue.
2. Anti-depressant
Clinical studies have shown that oral 5-HTP powder can improve depression symptoms. Several studies have found that taking 150-3000 mg daily for 2-4 weeks can improve depression symptoms. For some people, 5-HTP may be as beneficial as conventional antidepressants.
3. Lose weight
Griffonia extract can reduce the appetite, calorie intake and weight of obese people. Other studies have shown that using a specific mouthwash containing 5-HTP and other extracts (5-HTP-Nat Exts for 4 weeks) can reduce the weight of overweight postmenopausal women by about 41 percent .
