Label statements
Directions: Suggested usage: Take 1 capsule 1 to 3 times daily, preferably on an empty stomach before bedtime, or as directed by your healthcare practitioner.
Formula: Contains: How it works: 5-HTP is the intermediate precursor in the natural synthesis of serotonin, a neurotransmitter that helps to regulate mood, appetite, and sleep/wake cycles. 5-HTP readily crosses the blood-brain barrier and clinical studies suggest that 5-HTP can support healthy serotonin levels. Serotonin is associated with a positive mood and provides a substrate for the production of melatonin. 5-HTP is extracted from the bean of the African plant Griffonia simplicifolia, a natural vegetable source.
Precautions: All Other: Cautions/interactions: May cause mild, but transient GI discomfort. Individuals with a history of cardiac conditions, use only under the direction of your healthcare practitioner.
Precautions: Pregnant or Nursing or Prescription Medications: 5-HTP should be used with caution in combination with any serotonergic drug or herb, including SSRIs, MAOIs and St. John's wort.
