[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.

If someone says their bee pollen is freeze dried, they are most likely an advertising firm and know very little about bee pollen. Freeze dried does not apply to bee pollen, it applies to Royal Jelly. They are merely copying what they heard and they think sounds good. Example; The term Pasteurization is used with milk but does not apply to beef.

The technical term for freeze dried is lyophilization. When you see someone use the term freeze dried with bee pollen, what they are doing is simply dehydrating the pollen.

Since no one can get a patient on honey bee products, some companies are very resourceful in coming up with reasons why their bee pollen is the best. Bee Pollen is a very fine like powder which the honey bee packs into a nugget using an enzyme the honey bee makes so they can carry back to the hive. The important question you should ask, how fresh is the pollen.

It’s amazing how people copy information and use it and it’s bogus. Here’s an example. “BEE POLLEN: you could experience an allergic reaction, especially if you’re allergic to bees or anything else” First, get this clear. You can have an allergic reaction to bee pollen so read instructions and test your body by starting with a small amount and building up slowly. Now that we have that out of the way. You have seen on YouTube people incorrectly say, ” if you are allergic to (bees) bee stings, you can be allergic to bee pollen. That is a myth. The best way to explain is; Being allergic to bee stings has nothing to do with consuming bee products. The best example I can think of is, people who are lactose intolerant, can’t drink milk but they can eat beef. People who are allergic to eating eggs can eat chicken. I am not a doctor, not even close as we are beekeepers. be cautious and monitor your health.
