5-HTP capsules from Griffonia simplicifolia: 100 mg in a short ingredient list

These 5-HTP capsules from NOW Foods provide 100 mg of 5-hydroxytryptophan each, extracted from the seeds of an African plant, Griffonia simplicifolia. The pack holds 120 vegetable capsules, which means 120 servings of one capsule. The formula is deliberately short: besides the extract you get only rice flour and the capsule shell. It suits anyone who wants a single-ingredient supplement for an evening routine.

Why Choose It

This 5-HTP product relies on what you can read on the label: one active ingredient, 100 mg per capsule, with rice flour and a vegetable capsule as the only other components.

If you want a 5-HTP supplement with no unnecessary additions, this is a formula to discuss with your doctor.

Active ingredient: 5-HTP (5-hydroxytryptophan), 100 mg per capsule
Source: Griffonia simplicifolia seed extract
Serving size: 1 vegetable capsule
Other ingredients: rice flour, cellulose capsule
Pack size: 120 vegetable capsules, 120 servings
Intended for: adults only

The label dose is 1 capsule a day, preferably on an empty stomach at bedtime. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose; the product does not replace a varied and balanced diet. It is intended for adults who want 5-HTP in a 100 mg dose, in a vegetable capsule with few excipients. It may cause drowsiness and mild, transient gastrointestinal symptoms. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, take medication, especially antidepressants, have a medical condition or a history of heart problems, ask your doctor first. Store in a cool, dry place and keep out of the reach of children.

When should I take 5-HTP?

The label suggests 1 capsule a day, preferably on an empty stomach at bedtime. Because it may cause drowsiness, avoid taking it when you need to stay alert, for example before driving.

Can I take it with antidepressants?

The label tells you to consult a physician if you take medication, especially antidepressants. Do not combine them on your own: speak to your doctor or pharmacist first and bring the ingredient list with you.

Does it contain gluten or other allergens?

The ingredients include no wheat, gluten, soy, milk, egg, fish, shellfish or tree nuts. However, the product is made in a facility that also handles other raw materials containing these allergens, so cross-contact is possible.
