5-HTP (5-Hydroxytryptophan)

A stressful and busy working schedule may cause you to overthink about some problems, or you may have been dealing with some storms on your emotional life as well. This kind of stress can make the life harder than it already is, and can have a negative impact on your health. To fight against the overthinking, and the downers of life you have to maintain an uplift mood all the time. And if you are not an optimist, that means relying on some sweet snacks or even binge eating out of stress.

When you have to deal with a busy lifestyle, stress and anxiety may become a part of your daily routine as well as other stressors. And these factors may affect your sleep cycles, which makes every next day harder than before for your already tired mind and body. Reducing caffeine consumption along with a healthy diet may help to improve your sleep, but it can be a little bit hard to maintain in a busy schedule.

If you suffer from the problems above and some more, and if you already tried maintaining a healthy diet and exercise and wonder what to do more...

We suggest you to consider taking supplementary 5-HTP

Not significantly present in the typical diet, these capsules are a great way to make sure you are getting enough of this important nutrient every day. Great for balance, depression, anxiety, sleep and an overall positive well-being.

What Does It Do

NATURAL MOOD ENHANCER

Serotonin is the hormone responsible for mood, hunger, sleep and social function. Unfortunately, factors such as age and stress can decrease serotonin production, leading to moods similar to depression, anxiety, insomnia, fatigue and an overall negative mood. Supplementary 5HTP can be used by your body to create serotonin to increase its levels; this leads to a noticeable boost in your mood, sleep, overall day-to-day as you feel happier, relaxed and more positive. While the specific origin of depression is uncertain, some experts believe that a serotonin imbalance may have an influence on your mood, in a way that leads to depression. Serotonin levels are thought to be increased by 5-HTP, which may help with depression. In fact, 5-HTP has been shown to lessen symptoms of depression in a number of small studies. One study found that 5-HTP may aid in the treatment of depression. However, majority of the data indicate that when 5-HTP is coupled with other substences or antidepressant medications, the possible antidepressive effects are larger than when used alone. But yet, it’s not recommended to use with such medications without consulting a physician priorly.

SUPPORTS OVERALL WELL-BEING

In the brain, 5-HTP is a naturally occurring amino acid that is an important precursor for the brain to produce more Serotonin, otherwise known as the “Feel Good” neurotransmitter, that plays a major role in your everyday life, regulating things like your mood, appetite, sleep, memory, and social behavior. Production of this hormone diminishes with age, and stress can also be a cause of interference. Signs of low serotonin levels include anxiety & depression, difficulty sleeping, negative thoughts, and even migraines and fibromyalgia. Fibromyalgia is a condition characterized by muscle and bone pain, as well as general weakness. It’s cause yet to be identified, though low serotonin levels have been linked to the disorder. This has led researchers to believe that increasing serotonin levels through 5-HTP supplements may benefit people with fibromyalgia as early data shows that 5-HTP may help with fibromyalgia symptoms such muscular pain, sleep issues, anxiety, and exhaustion. BRI 5-HTP supplements contain 100mg of 5-HTP to help increase production levels of serotonin to combat these problems in one single tablet. It is a natural mood booster designed to help remove stress and ease yourself into a state of well-being and relaxation. Serotonin can also produce Melatonin, which is responsible over your circadian rhythm and sleep regulation, which means a more restful night’s sleep and energy to spare in the morning! Seize control over your life again, no matter what life throws your way!

PROMOTES HEALTHY SLEEP CYCLES

Serotonin is responsible for both the physical processes like sleep regulation and appetite, and mental processes like mood, memory, and overall well-being. 5- HTP can be converted into serotonin, restoring it back to normal levels while leading to more melatonin production in the process. Increased melatonin production in your body improves your overall mood, helps you to maintain healthy sleep levels by relieving your mind from stress, negative thoughts and traces of depression and anxiety.

HELPS WEIGHT LOSS

5-HTP may cause you to feel more satisfied, allowing you to eat less and lose weight. Weight loss might lead to an increase in the production of hunger hormones and might be difficult in the long run due to these sensations of persistent hunger. 5-HTP works to supress the appetite and aid weight loss by counteracting these hunger-inducing chemicals. In one study, 20 people with diabetes were given either 5-HTP or a placebo for two weeks. In comparison to the placebo group, individuals who took 5-HTP consumed 435 less calories each day. 5-HTP also primarily reduced carbohydrate consumption, which was linked to improved blood sugar management. Many other studies have also found that 5-HTP increased feelings of fullness and aided weight loss in overweight or obese people. Moreover, animal studies have shown that 5-HTP may reduce excessive food intake due to stress or depression.
