[What is 5-HTP]

5-HTP (5-Hydroxytryptophan) is a chemical by-product of the protein building block L-tryptophan. It is also produced commercially from the seeds of an African plant known as Griffonia simplicifolia 5-HTP is used for sleep disorders such as insomnia, depression, anxiety, migraine and tension-type headaches, fibromyalgia, obesity, premenstrual syndrome (PMS), premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD), attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), seizure disorder, and Parkinson’s disease.

 [How does it work?]

5-HTP works in the brain and central nervous system by increasing the production of the chemical serotonin. Serotonin can affect sleep, appetite, temperature, sexual behavior, and pain sensation. Since 5-HTP increases the synthesis of serotonin, it is used for several diseases where serotonin is believed to play an important role including depression, insomnia, obesity, and many other conditions.

[Function]

Depression. Some clinical research shows that taking 5-HTP by mouth improve symptoms of depression in some people. Some clinical research shows that taking 5-HTP by mouth might be as beneficial as certain prescription antidepressant drugs for improving depression symptoms. In most studies, 150-800 mg daily of 5-HTP was taken. In some cases, higher doses have been used.

Down syndrome. Some research shows that giving 5-HTP to infants with Down syndrome might improve muscle and activity. Other research shows that it does not improve muscle or development when taken from infancy until 3-4 years of age. Research also shows that taking 5-HTP along with conventional prescription drugs does improve development, social skills, or language skills.

Anxiety 5-HTP was found to be protective against carbon dioxide-induced panic attacks. One study compared 5-HTP and the prescription medication clomipramine for anxiety. Clomipramine is a tricyclic antidepressant used for treating obsessive-compulsive disorder. 5-HTP was found to be somewhat effective in reducing anxiety symptoms, but not as effective as clomipramine.

Sleep 5-HTP supplements fared a little better for insomnia.5-HTP decreased the time required to get to sleep and decreased the number of nighttime awakenings. Taking 5-HTP along with GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid), a relaxing neurotransmitter, reduced the time it took to fall asleep and increased the duration and quality of sleep. One study found that children with night terrors benefited from 5-HTP.

One of the secrets of weight management is helping people fight the inner demons of hunger and the feeling that they need to eat everything in front of them. One of the time-honored and proven ways of helping moderate hunger is by using a protein-sparing program, as carbohydrate reduction in the presence of protein significantly blunts appetite. However, what do you do with the people who eat the protein but still crave the warm, fuzzy feeling that food (and the anticipation of eating) gives them? These types of people think they are hungry, even when all normal indicators would say they couldn’t be. In truth, they are craving the feeling of “reward response” which SmartSlim® has been designed to address: thermogenesis PLUS craving support.

Some plants contain small amounts of alkaloids that are direct and indirect-acting adrenergic agents, such as synephrine, octopamine and from Bitter Orange and methylhexanamine from sweet-scented geranium oil. Adrenergic agents with beta-agonist activity can stimulate thermogenesis (an increase in lipolysis and resting metabolic rate) in some persons, thus increasing the removal and oxidation of fat from adipose tissue stores, an action potentiated by methylxanthines, such as caffeine, present in Green Tea. Velvet Bean contains L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA), a precursor for the endogenous catecholamines that mediate thermogenesis in peripheral tissues and act as neurotransmitters in the central nervous system (CNS). In dopaminergic pathways in the CNS, the L-DOPA from Velvet Bean can increase dopamine availability, while aporphine alkaloids from Sacred Lotus can mimic the action of dopamine. Dopaminergic pathways in the CNS may modulate eating behavior.*
