5 HTP Supplement

What is 5-htp?

5-HTP is a precursor to serotonin, the neurotransmitter sometimes touted as responsible for well-being. 5-HTP is an easy way to increase brain serotonin levels by bypassing rate-limiting steps, and users can receive the reward or harm of increased brain serotonin.
5-HTP is a compound that is converted into serotonin in the brain. Serotonin is one of the main neurotransmitters involved in well-being and anti-depression.
5-HTP has been used successfully to restore serotonin levels in people who may have reduced serotonin levels, such as depression and those with high levels of inflammation in the body (often seen in metabolic syndrome).

Deficiency of the amino acid tryptophan (a precursor of 5-HTP) has been reported to be associated with depression, as demonstrated by serum tryptophan in patients with depression. Decreased levels of tryptophan in the body can come from a variety of means, but are most likely caused by a diet lacking the amino acid as a substrate, or by upregulation of the enzyme. Degrading tryptophan or directing it to a pathway other than serotonin synthesis results in relative deficiency. These enzymes can be upregulated in chronic inflammatory states, and injection of some proinflammatory cytokines has been associated with depression and increased guanosine:tryptophan ratios, suggesting increased IDO activity. Tryptophan hydroxylase activity can also be further downregulated in the presence of magnesium or vitamin B6 deficiency, stress, or excess tryptophan levels.

Serotonin appears to be involved in panic attacks. While studies using tryptophan-depleting techniques in humans have not necessarily caused panic attacks, it appears that it may sensitize the body by increasing panic symptoms in neurological disorders and increasing anxiety, suggesting that serotonin at least rapidly prevents panic attacks. A study of 24 untreated panic disorder patients and normal participants given 200mg of 5-HTP prior to a 35% CO2 test (used to induce panic-like reactions) noted that the test was able to improve the caused panic attacks, and 200 mg of 5-HTP was protective in both cases but more protective in people with panic attacks. This has been reproduced with cholecystokinin-4-induced panic attacks with 200mg of 5-HTP in otherwise healthy individuals.

People with panic disorder may be more susceptible to serotonergic imbalances, with tryptophan depletion (considered a reliable model for lowering serotonin) leading to greater acceptability of panic attacks. On the basis of the possible anti-panic effects of 5-HTP, a study using 2 mg/kg 5-HTP in children (3.2-10.6 years) at bedtime for 20 days noted that 5-HTP was associated with a beneficial response (over 95.5 % children, compared to 28.6% in the placebo group, had a 50% reduction in the frequency of night terrors). Curiously, the 5-HTP group still reported less sleep terror (83.9% improvement reported) 6 months after the initial supplementation period.
