Neuro-5-HTP Plus by Biotics - supplies 5-HTP (L-5-Hydroxy Tryptophan ) with L-Theanine and B-vitamin synergists with SOD and catalase. 5-HTP (derived from L-Tryptophan) is converted to serotonin, a key neurotransmitter. L-theanine (from green tea), a derivative of L-glutamic acid,may possess mood-modulating activity as a result of increased production of alpha-brain wave activity.
Caution: Very high doses of 5-HTP can be metabolized peripherally and can trigger excess serotonin formation. 5-HTP is not recommended for pregnant or lactating women and should be avoided by those with any form of cardiovascular disease. 5-HTP should not be used by those taking serotonin 5-HTP or receptor agonists (naratriptan, sumatriptan, zolmitriptan).
