5-HTP Synergy™
Product information
Designs for Health 5-HTP Synergy™ is a carefully formulated combination of 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) and pyridoxal-5-phosphate (P-5-P) , the biologically active form of vitamin B6. This combination supports the production and function of neurotransmitters, particularly serotonin, and is suitable for daytime or evening use.
What is 5-HTP?
5-HTP is a natural precursor to serotonin , an important neurotransmitter involved in mood, sleep, appetite, and mental balance. 5-HTP can cross the blood-brain barrier and is converted into serotonin in the brain.
What is pyridoxal-5-phosphate (vitamin B6)?
Pyridoxal-5-phosphate is the activated form of vitamin B6 . This form is readily available to the body and serves as an essential cofactor in the conversion of 5-HTP to serotonin. Without sufficient vitamin B6, this process is less efficient.
Why serotonin is important
Serotonin is often called the "feel-good" neurotransmitter. It plays a role in:
- Sleep-wake rhythm
- Mood and emotional balance
- Appetite and satiety
- Stress response
- Body temperature and pain perception
Serotonin itself cannot cross the blood-brain barrier. Therefore, direct serotonin supplementation is ineffective; the body must produce serotonin itself from precursors such as 5-HTP , supported by vitamin B6 .
Benefits of 5-HTP Synergy™
The effects listed below are based on nutritional and physiological functions. Health claims are pending approval by the EFSA.
5-HTP Synergy™ can help:
- Supporting a positive mood
- Maintain a healthy sleep pattern , especially when used in the evening
- Support of neurotransmitter function
- A normalized appetite and feeling of satiety
- Support for stress resistance
5-HTP is also used by the body in the production of other neurotransmitters and signaling substances such as melatonin, dopamine, noradrenaline and beta-endorphin .
