Information Profile at a glance |
- Griffonia simplicifolia is a
woody climbing shrub native to West Africa and Central Africa. It grows
to about 3 m, and bears greenish flowers followed by black pods.
- The seeds of the plant are
used as a herbal supplement for their 5-Hydroxytryptophan content.
5-Hydroxytryptophan may be extracted from seeds as a supplement which as
a serotonin precursor is beneficial in serotonin deficiency. Ongoing
research suggests that 5-Hydroxytryptophan may also be beneficial in
mood disorders including mild to moderate clinical depression and
sleeping disorders.
- Children with sleep
disorder-related headaches seem to respond to 5-HTP treatment. It
alleviates the effects of a variety of conditions, including depression,
anxiety, insomnia and obesity.
- 5-hydroxytryptophan is a
more potent in vitro hydroxyl radical scavenger than melatonin or
vitamin C.
- 5HTP induced increase in
salivary cortisol in panic disorder patients and healthy
volunteers.
- Effect of orally
administered L-tryptophan on serotonin, melatonin, and the innate immune
response in the rat.
- For better sleep, consider Good Night Rx. 5HTP is
not consistently effective when it comes to sleep, although using a
lower dose of 10 to 30 mg may be tried one to three hours before
bed.
- 5-HTP should not be used in
patients currently being treated or who have recently been treated
with
an SSRI antidepressant.
