NOW Foods 5-HTP With Glycine, Taurine & Inositol, 120 Veg Capsules
UPC: 733739001115
NOW Foods' Double Strength 5-HTP supplement is formulated to support neurotransmitter function and a positive mood, according to the manufacturer. Each vegetarian capsule provides 200 mg of 5-HTP extracted from Griffonia simplicifolia seeds, which is double the amount in the brand's regular strength product, along with 100 mg each of glycine, taurine, and inositol.
This product is notable for its combination of amino acids and cofactors, which the manufacturer suggests work synergistically. The 5-HTP is derived from a specific botanical source, and the formula includes free-form versions of glycine and taurine for potential bioavailability. NOW Foods highlights that this version is part of their double-strength line, offering a higher concentration per serving.
Available in a 120-count bottle of vegetable capsules, it is certified Non-GMO, Vegan, and Kosher by Triangle K. The suggested use is one capsule daily, preferably on an empty stomach at bedtime.
