What is 5-HTP?

Being a newer ingredient, people are less familiar with 5-HTP.

5-HTP is a naturally occurring amino acid that is commonly found in Griffonia simplicifolia, a plant found in Africa. The 5-HTP supplement is made from the seed of the plant, which has high amounts of 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP).

How is 5-HTP Made?

The natural production of 5-HTP can be an interesting process.

5-HTP is produced naturally in the body. More specifically, it is produced from the amino acid tryptophan through the action of the enzyme tryptophan hydroxylase.

While the natural production may be sufficient, there are processes to synthetically produce 5-HTP. This can be done through a two-step fermentation process that leads to the production of 5-HTP.

This amino acid can also be sourced from natural sources like plants.

The Main Source of 5-HTP

This amino acid is able to be extracted from a certain plant.

5-HTP is extracted from the seeds of Griffonia simplicifolia, a plant found on the African continent. The seeds are the source of this amino acid, and they are collected from the plants to create the supplement. Once separated from the plant, the seeds undergo a cleaning process that removes any excess dirt and extra material. The seeds are then pulverized to create a fine powder. This powder undergoes another cleaning cycle that allows it to become completely pure. The final product is then mixed with a solution to remove any last particles, after which it becomes completely pure. The final seed powder is then mixed with other ingredients as per the structure of the supplement.

Properties of 5-HTP

5-HTP can be used in specially made supplements.

When manufacturing supplements, the ability to produce specialized supplements is important. This can include time-release supplements. The emergence of 5-HTP has led to the belief that it will be very effective in the use of these supplements, because of its chemical composition, along with the fact that it is naturally absorbed in the upper intestine, typically from oral doses.
