Griffonia Seed Extract (5-HTP) – Natural Mood and Sleep Support
🌿 What is Griffonia Seed Extract?
Griffonia simplicifolia, a leguminous plant native to West Africa, is valued for its seeds, which are a rich natural source of 5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP).
5-HTP is a direct precursor to serotonin, a neurotransmitter involved in mood regulation, appetite, and sleep. This makes Griffonia seed extract a highly sought-after ingredient in modern mood, stress, and sleep-support formulations.
⚗️ Key Active Component
The primary bioactive compound in Griffonia Seed Extract is 5-HTP, which the body naturally converts into serotonin and subsequently melatonin.
This process helps regulate emotional balance, appetite control, and the body’s natural sleep–wake cycle.
