5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) is the immediate biochemical precursor to serotonin (5-HT) — the neurotransmitter governing mood regulation, appetite satiety, pain modulation, and circadian rhythm. Derived from the seeds of Griffonia simplicifolia, 5-HTP crosses the blood-brain barrier far more efficiently than its precursor tryptophan, bypassing the rate-limiting tryptophan hydroxylase enzyme. Clinical trials in mood disorders, fibromyalgia, and insomnia consistently demonstrate statistically significant benefits with 100–300 mg per day.
