5-HTP

5-HTP

5-HTP is a chemical byproduct of the protein building block L-tryptophan. It is produced commercially from the seeds of an African plant known as Griffonia simplicifolia. 5-HTP works in the brain and central nervous system by increasing the production of serotonin which will decrease the chances of depression during and after withdrawal from kratom.  Serotonin is known as your body's natural "feel good" chemical which is much needed during the tough days of withdrawal.
