5-HTP (5-hydroxy L-tryptophan) is a naturally occurring metabolite of the amino acid tryptophan. 5-HTP is converted in the brain to serotonin, a neurotransmitter substance found at the junctions (synapses) between neurons. Vitamin B6 is necessary for 5-HTP to be converted into serotonin and Vitamin C helps conversion of 5-HTP to new serotonin. 5-HTP helps maintain mental and emotional well-being and promotes healthy sleep.
