Product Information

The full name of 5 HTP is 5-Hydroxytryptophan, which is a natural compound that our bodies make from the amino acid, tryptophan. 5-HTP is converted in the brain, into serotonin, which acts as a brain chemical messenger.

5 HTP is a well researched nutrient with over 15 published studies supporting its use. 5 HTP tablets are now a top-selling supplement in the USA and its long history of use has shown it to have an excellent safety record.

Nature’s Best insist on the purest grade available, extracted from the seeds of a tree called Griffonia Simplicifolia and not from synthetic versions. Each tablet therefore provides 100mg of pure 5-HTP, a level which matches that used in published studies.

Daily Intake

Take 1-3 tablets daily. Start on one tablet and increase if necessary. Take half an hour before meals, or half an hour before bedtime. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose. Take for up to 3 months and then stop for a month and review. Food supplements should not replace a balanced diet and healthy lifestyle.

"Seems to do the job"

By Alan Woodward , 21 Oct 2019

I used this product because I was in a very dark place. After 2 weeks it does appear to have helped. My sunny outlook has sent some of the clouds away. Will continue for the advised month and stop.
Very pleased.

"Have been taking one tablet at night before bed. As yet no no effect apart from disturbed sleep"

Was recommended to try 5-HTP to increase serotonin but at present disappointed

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.

As with the majority of our products, this should be used daily for at least three months before the effects are assessed. It would be great if you could leave a review after this time.

I''ve been through a difficult time and my serotonin level was very low contributing to continual headache and migraine and a very low mood. I felt so much better on an **** ********** except for the side effect I began to experience. 5-HTP is a replacement for the **** ********** which I prescribed for myself. I continue to feel bouyant and well and I don''t have any side effects. I am so very grateful. The product is pure, I did my research and I chose it out of all the others. Nature''s Best is wonderful and I say thank you very much for everything.

We would not recommend taking supplements instead of prescribed medications unless you discuss this with your doctor first and they are happy for you to do so. We would also suggest that you keep your doctor informed of any supplements that you are taking.
