Product Information
What is Cytoplan 5-HTP Plus good for?
Cytoplan 5-HTP Plus is formulated to support mood, emotional balance and overall mental wellbeing. It provides 5-HTP (5-Hydroxytryptophan), a naturally-occurring amino acid derived from Griffonia simplicifolia seed extract. 5-HTP is directly converted into serotonin, a key neurotransmitter that influences mood, motivation, and energy levels.
This synergistic formula combines 5-HTP with magnesium and vitamin B6, two nutrients essential for the normal functioning of the nervous system and the conversion of tryptophan to serotonin. Serotonin also plays a role in the production of melatonin, the sleep hormone, meaning this supplement may additionally support a healthy sleep-wake cycle.
