Vitakruid 5-HTP 100mgPrecursor of serotonin
The product 5-HTP 100 mg contains a uniquely highly concentrated Griffonia simplicifolia extract with no less than 30% of the active substance 5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP). The Griffonia bush is a plant species that is commonly found in Central and West Africa. The seeds of this crop contain a wealth of 5-HTP. This essential amino acid easily crosses the blood-brain barrier and is converted in the brain into the neurotransmitter serotonin, which is the precursor to the hormone melatonin.
5-HTP is a pre-converted form of tryptophan. However, the problem with tryptophan is that there is a continuous struggle with other amino acids for absorption in the brain (Fernstrom, 2013). Tryptophan must compete with amino acids such as leucine, valine, tyrosine, and isoleucine. In practice, this means that tryptophan can only be converted into serotonin on average for 1/5 (Fernstrom, 2013).
By using 5-HTP 100 mg alongside Multi Nacht, you create a powerful variant of the Multi Nacht.
