AOR 5-HTP Details

AOR 5-HTP is L-5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) derived from Griffonia simplicifolia seed extract. 5-HTP is a metabolite of the amino acid tryptophan and an essential precursor of the biosynthesis of the neurotransmitter serotonin and the neurohormone melatonin. Research supports the role of 5-HTP in supporting mood balance, ease of sleep, and the proper tone of the muscles on the back of the neck, resulting in changes in blood flow and pain fibers.

5-HTP is primarily used to support mood through its ability to boost serotonin levels. Since serotonin and melatonin are involved in regulating the sleep/wake cycle, 5-HTP also enhances sleep quality. Additionally, research supports the role of 5-HTP in reducing migraines and the symptoms of fibromyalgia. Studies in Spain and Italy found that 5-HTP was comparable to the drug methysergide in alleviating the symptoms of migraines (over 70% in both groups) while eliciting considerably fewer side effects. Several clinical trials have confirmed significant improvements in symptoms, including pain, morning stiffness, nervousness, and fatigue.

Ultimately, those who suffer from mood imbalances such as low mood and anxiety, or from migraines, fibromyalgia, or sleep disorders may benefit from taking AOR 5-HTP. AOR also offers 5-HTP Extra Strength, which is twice the strength of regular AOR 5-HTP.

May help with migraines

For healthy mood balance, take 1-2 AOR Tryfonia capsules three times daily with food; for relief of symptoms of fibromyalgia, take 2 capsules three to four times daily with food. To minimize gastrointestinal side effect risk, start at 50-100 mg two to three times daily and slowly increase to an effective dose over 2 weeks. Use for a minimum of 1 week to see beneficial effects for mood balance and 2 weeks for the alleviation of fibromyalgia symptoms. Consult a health care practitioner if symptoms persist or worsen or for use beyond one year.
