5-HTP Capsules • 200 mg • Griffonia Simplicifolia

Naturally derived from Griffonia Simplicifolia

  • 5-HTP (5-hydroxytryptophan) is a naturally occurring serotonin precursor that is formed in the body from the amino acid tryptophan. Our 5-HTP is extracted from the Griffonia seeds of the African plant Griffonia simplicifolia.
  • Unlike L-tryptophan, 5-HTP can cross the blood-brain barrier without a transport molecule and has an average bioavailability of 70%, as impressively demonstrated by Birdsall TC in his 1998 study.1 Many people therefore consciously integrate 5-HTP capsules into their daily lives.

Proven plant extract

  • Griffonia extract has long been valued as a herbal source of high-quality 5-HTP.
  • Thanks to its natural origin, 5-HTP is an established component of modern nutritional concepts.

Premium quality from Germany

  • Each capsule provides a precisely dosed 200 mg of 5-HTP from 667 mg of high-quality Griffonia extract – ideal for a clearly defined 5-HTP dosage and consistent daily intake.
  • Pure formulation without unnecessary additives, vegan, gluten-free, and well-tolerated – even with long-term use. Many people prioritize purity and quality when taking 5-HTP long-term.
  • 120 capsules for up to 4 months of well-being – carefully filled and laboratory-tested in Germany. Ideal for anyone looking to buy 5-HTP and prioritizing tested premium quality.
