Supplements | Metagenics 5-HTP
Metagenics 5-HTP delivers 50 mg of pure 5-Hydroxytryptophan per capsule, a naturally derived amino acid sourced from Griffonia simplicifolia seeds. 5-HTP acts as a direct precursor to serotonin and melatonin, key neurotransmitters involved in mood regulation and sleep-wake cycles. By bypassing the body’s conversion from tryptophan, this form is more efficiently used to support normal mood balance and healthy sleep rhythms.
This practitioner-grade formula provides a bioavailable way to incorporate 5-HTP into your daily wellness routine as part of a balanced diet and lifestyle.
Suggested Use
Some individuals may take up to 600 mg per day, though higher doses may cause loose stools in some users.
Suitable for adults. For children, dosage should be reduced proportionally based on body weight (consult a healthcare professional for guidance).
Recommended Dose
Take 1–2 capsules daily, or as directed by your healthcare practitioner.
