Q: What is 5-HTP and how does it work?

A: 5-HTP (5-Hydroxy-L-tryptophan) is a naturally occurring amino acid and chemical precursor to serotonin, a neurotransmitter that regulates mood, sleep, and appetite. By increasing serotonin levels, 5-HTP helps improve mood balance, reduce anxiety, and promote better sleep.
