WomenSense - HappySense 5-HTP - 50 mg - Time Release

WomenSense HappySense 5-HTP - 50 mg - Naturally enhances serotonin levels, which in turn helps promote healthy mood balance, relieve symptoms of fibromyalgia, and reduce the severity and duration of migraine headaches when taken as a preventative. 5-HTP can also be used as a sleep aid. With a program of reduced intake of dietary calories and increased physical activity, 5-HTP can help in weight management by reducing carbohydrate cravings. Timed-release caplets are designed to release 5-HTP gradually over an extended period. This minimizes the mild gastric discomfort that can occur in some individuals.

L-5-HTP (L-5-Hydroxytryptophan) (Griffonia simplicifolia) (seed) 50 mg

Microcrystalline cellulose, dicalcium phosphate, carbohydrate gum (cellulose), coating (carbohydrate gum [cellulose], glycerin), vegetable grade magnesium stearate (lubricant).
