Provides Support for Serotonin Production
Promotes a Balanced and Positive Mood
Promotes Healthy and Deeper Sleep
Clinical Applications
Stressful lifestyles and poor diets often cause a depletion of serotonin levels. 5-HTP (5-hydroxytryptophan) has been used for many years to replenish serotonin levels and support a healthy mood and sleep cycle regulation. Supplementation with 5-HTP has been shown to increase serotonin levels in the central nervous system. The essential amino acid, tryptophan is converted into 5-HTP by the enzyme tryptophan hydroxylase. Tryptophan hydroxylase can be inhibited by a number of factors including stress, insulin resistance, pyridoxine (vitamin B6) deficiency, and insufficient magnesium levels. Supplementation with 5-HTP bypasses the conversion of tryptophan to 5-HTP and thus supports optimal levels of serotonin. 5-HTP also readily crosses the blood-brain barrier, bypassing competition with other amino acids, making it a more efficient precursor for serotonin production.
This formulation of 5-HTP is extracted naturally from the seed of the African plant Griffonia simplicifolia.
Fundamental 5-HTP has been shown to support patients with mild mood changes, occasional restless sleep, and periodic, mild anxiety.

Dr. Theresa and Mary Kattine are both phenomenal. I have had Chronic pain for over 25 years and these ladies have me feeling better than all the other treatments in a matter of weeks!! So grateful!!!Jennifer V.
The best I've seen in the Cincinnati area for helping many different issues with acupuncture, herbal medicine, detoxing and more. I've been seeing them for about 20 years. Took my son to them after he had to have spinal surgery for scoliosis that Childrens Hospital would do nothing about except watch it get worse.Rebecca S.
The doctors took my symptoms seriously and offered to run various tests they thought might help. They made the diagnosis that helped identify what was happening to me and why and treat the cause vs symptoms. I’d recommend them to anyone with “mystery symptoms” and I’d recommended them over self-diagnosis.Audrey K.
PLEASE seek out this amazing place. Their whole body approach also addresses the emotional impact of illness and lifestyle changes. Years ago, my parents went to see Dr. Amoils and I believe, it prolonged their lives. Five stars is not enough to express my satisfaction and gratitude.Susan M.
