Benefit from the natural 5-HTP from the African black bean
Serotonin, also known as the "happy hormone," is a hormone with diverse functions. The body can produce serotonin itself from the precursor 5-HTP.
According to the GSE Phyto Vitamins concept, the micronutrients are extracted directly from the plant and are therefore natural. In Europe, the African black bean is known primarily for its high natural content of 5-HTP.
In addition to the naturally occurring 5-HTP, the organic Griffonia extract also contains the secondary plant substances naturally occurring in the plant. These accompanying plant substances further support the usability of the natural ingredients.
The special feature of BIO 5-HTP Griffonia : In cooperation with an African supplier and a German pharmaceutical company, GSE is the first company in the world to succeed in producing a Griffonia extract that meets the high requirements of the EC organic regulation.

5-HTP GRIFFONIA Tablets Organic benefits:
What effect does griffonia have? Griffonia works primarily through its main component 5-HTP, which is converted into serotonin in the brain. This enables the plant to help stabilise mood, promote sleep, reduce stress and reduce cravings.
5-HTP works in the brain and central nervous system by increasing the production of the chemical serotonin. Serotonin can affect sleep, appetite, temperature, sexual behavior, and pain sensation. Since 5-HTP increases serotonin levels, it is used for conditions in which serotonin is believed to play an important role.
Conclusion. It can be concluded that 5-HTP supplementation improved sleep quality for up to 8 weeks in older adults, possibly by increasing the biosynthesis of serotonin.
Stress reduction: By boosting serotonin production, griffonia can help to reduce stress and promote inner calm. Help with weight management: Griffonia can reduce cravings by regulating appetite. Thus, Griffonia can also be used as an adjunctive therapy for obesity.
5-HTP produces serotonin, which can be converted into the hormone melatonin. Melatonin plays an important role in regulating sleep. Its levels begin to rise in the evening to promote sleep and fall in the morning to help wake you up.
Since serotonin helps regulate mood and behavior, 5-HTP may have a positive effect on sleep, mood, anxiety, appetite, and pain sensation.
