Linnea Nuova Swiss Pharmaceutical Company manufactures our 5-HTP.
Now, scientists have discovered
that depression, anxiety, and sleeplessness are all related to a
deficiency of the neurotransmitter serotonin (5-hydroxy-tryptophan,
5-HTP) in the brain. Restore the serotonin, and your mood improves,
anxiety melts away, and you sleep restfully through the night.
L-5-HTP
Other symptoms of serotonin deficiency
can include: carbohydrate cravings, migraines, obsessive-compulsive
behaviors, and other behavioral disorders.

Natural Sleep Aid
L-5-HTP
Depressed levels of serotonin are also associated with
sleep problems, low threshold for pain, and anxiety. Tryptophan was used
by millions around the world for this purpose. We can now increase
serotonin levels by supplying more of the raw materials for
manufacturing of serotonin, namely L-Tryptophan and 5-Hydroxytryptophan
(5-HTP) which the body uses to make 5-Hydroxy Tryptamine, also known as
serotonin.
Natural Anti-depressant and 5-Hydroxy L- Tryptophan
Depression results, in part, from the lack of
serotonin, a brain neurotransmitter. The leading antidepressants are
selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors. By blocking the reuptake of
serotonin, they increase the serotonin available to stimulate serotonin
receptors. These include Prozac¨, Zoloft¨, Paxil¨, and Effexor¨.
While they may be very effective for the treatment of depression, they
are not without side effects, including the loss of sex drive. I would
think it pretty depressing if you lost your sex drive? They are also
expensive, and only available by prescription.
Studies indicate that 5-HTP, a serotonin precursor,
may even work better for depression than Tryptophan. Beta endorphins,
the Òfeel-goodÓ hormones, were also significantly elevated after
consumption of 200 mg of 5-HTP by patients with severe depression.
It should be noted that 5-HTP cannot be taken at the
same time as the listed anti-depressants (or others), because they work
in the same way. Check with your doctor to determine if 5-HTP is for
you.
Natural Weight-loss Aid and 5-Hydroxy L- Tryptophan
L-5-HTP
Weight loss products such as Redux and Fenfluramine of
the popular Phen-Fen diet work by the same serotonin reuptake inhibiting
mechanism increasing the serotonin levels. Beta endorphins seem to fool
people into feeling fuller, therefore, individuals eat less and lose
weight. (Not to be used if you are currently taking Redux, Fenfluramine
or Phen-Fen.) If you are unhappy with the results or side effects of
your current diet program, 5-HTP may be an effective alternative for
you!
