Griffonia Simplicifolia is a woody climbing shrub native to West and Central Africa, particularly in countries such as Ghana, Ivory Coast, and Togo. Since ancient times, folk medicine in West Africa has used the leaves of Ghana seeds to heal wounds and is also a good medicine for treating urinary tract disorders and kidney disease; Ghana seeds have the effect of treating pelvic congestion, diarrhea, nausea and vomiting, stomach pain, etc. However, its ghana seeds are of particular interest in modern natural plant extract medicine and healthcare products, due to its high content of 5-HTP.

Antidepressants, tranquilizers

5-HTP is the precursor substance of a hormone called serotonin in the human body.

It can help the production of this hormone in the human body and achieve balance in the body.

5-Hydroxytryptophan is a naturally occurring amino acidic substance. It can be found in many dietary proteins. 5-hydroxytryptophan is a hormone secreted by the brain. It affects our mood, sleep and appetite. When the serotonin in the brain is imbalanced, 5-hydroxytryptophan is needed to maintain the body in a normal state. Therefore, if the content is too low, it may lead to depression, anxiety and sleep disorders. 5-hydroxytryptophan can increase the production of serotonin in brain cells, thereby increasing the content of 5-hydroxytryptophan. 5HTP produces serotonin in the human body, which is helpful for normal nerve important substances and brain function. Serotonin can help sleep, can also effectively control pain and treat depression.

Reduce Stress and Improve Sleep

5-Hydroxytryptophan has also been successfully used to treat sleep disorders. Since serotonin is a precursor to melatonin, a natural hormone that regulates sleep and wake cycles, when levels of serotonin increase, levels of melatonin also increase, making sleep sweetener.

5-hydroxytryptophan and SSRI have similar effects, but the SSRI has disadvantages: First, it is prescription antidepressant drugs and it is much more expensive; Second, prescription drugs often cause some adverse side effects, including dry mouth, anxiety, and loss of sexual desire.

Weight Loss

It can effectively control appetite and improve the sensitivity of the satiety center. In the diet control of weight loss, it can reduce hunger and make the weight loss process easier and easier to achieve. It is a popular weight loss food auxiliary at present.

In addition to its traditional medicinal functions and anti-depressant properties, it also has the functions of losing weight, quitting addiction, improving sleep, alleviating premenstrual syndrome (PMS), and treating migraines.

5-HTP powder (5-Hydroxytryptophan) is a compound that can be produced in the body through the conversion of tryptophan. Although no foods contain 5-HTP directly, certain foods rich in tryptophan can indirectly boost 5-HTP levels in the body, because tryptophan is a precursor to 5-HTP. Below are some foods rich in tryptophan that can help increase the synthesis of 5-HTP:

Food Sources of L-Tryptophan

•Animal Protein Sources

Turkey and Chicken: Turkey is especially well-known for its high tryptophan content.

Beef: Lean cuts of beef are particularly high in tryptophan.

Fish: Salmon, tuna, and trout are rich sources of tryptophan.

Eggs: Egg whites, in particular, contain high levels of tryptophan.

Dairy Products: Milk, yogurt, and cheese are also rich in tryptophan.

•Plant Protein Sources

Soy Products: Foods like tofu, soy milk, and edamame are excellent sources of tryptophan.

Nuts and Seeds: Pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, sesame seeds, and peanuts are rich in tryptophan.

Legumes: Lentils, chickpeas, and black beans also contain good amounts of tryptophan.

•Grain Sources

Oats: Oats are a grain that contains a significant amount of tryptophan.

Quinoa: Quinoa is a complete protein and a good source of tryptophan.

•Fruits

Bananas: While not as rich in tryptophan as protein sources, bananas are one of the few fruits that contain some tryptophan.

Pineapple: Pineapple can help boost serotonin levels.

While foods containing tryptophan can help the body produce 5-HTP, the conversion from tryptophan to 5-HTP is not highly efficient and is influenced by other factors such as vitamins (especially vitamin B6) and magnesium. A diet rich in these nutrients can help enhance 5-HTP synthesis.
