SereTone is a synergistic blend of vitamins, minerals and 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP), that have been shown to support those with mild mood imbalances and occasional sleeplessness by increasing the synthesis of the neurotransmitter serotonin. 5-HTP (5-hydroxytryptophan) is an amino acid that plays an important role in the production of serotonin. Serotonin is vital to supporting deeper stages of sleep, regulating the appetite, and promoting a positive mood. Unlike the amino acid L-tryptophan, 5-HTP is able to effectively cross the blood-brain barrier and increase synthesis of serotonin in the central nervous system (CNS). SereTone includes a 300 mg dose of 5-HTP, as well as 150 mg of magnesium glycinate chelate, 30 mg vitamin B6 as P5P, 300 mcg folic acid and 15 mg zinc glycinate chelate per 3 capsule serving, for maximum serotonin support.
Why These Natural Ingredients?
Vitamin B6
Vitamin B6 is known to be deficient in the typical American diet, particularly in the elderly. Vitamin B6 is needed in the conversion of 5-HTP to serotonin.
Folic Acid
Folic acid is used in many processes in the body. It is involved in the production of neurotransmitters such as serotonin.
Calcium
Not only is calcium important in bone health, but it also plays a role in neurotransmitter production.
Magnesium
Magnesium, like vitamin B6, is known to be deficient in the typical American diet. Magnesium deficiency can result in a number of distractions such as poor attention, restlessness, and poor cognitive function.
5-HTP
5-HTP is the precursor to serotonin. 5-HTP has been shown to be effective in people with mood disorders, restless sleep, and anxiety.
