5-HTP (short for 5-hydroxytryptophan) is the hydroxylated form of the amino acid tryptophan. The body produces 5-HTP from tryptophan, which is then converted into serotonin. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter with a wide range of biological functions, including regulation of appetite, mood, sleep, impulse control, and memory.

The 5-HTP contained in Lamberts® Griffonia Seed Extract is of natural origin, specifically derived from the seeds of the African plant Griffonia simplicifolia. The extract from the seeds of this plant is one of the most widely used 5-HTP supplements worldwide and is particularly popular among Health Professionals in the USA.

As with all herbal products manufactured by Lamberts®, there is increased vigilance regarding the selection of raw materials. The selection of raw materials is always based on international guidelines concerning their purity and absence of environmental contaminants.

The recommended daily dose of Lamberts® Griffonia Seed Extract provides the levels of 5-HTP used in clinical studies. Like all Lamberts® products, it is manufactured in the United Kingdom according to the strict standards of Pharmaceutical GMP (Pharmaceutical GMP).
