NewLifeBotanicals 5-HTP, 100mg, 60 Vcaps

Description

This is a completely natural weight loss supplement. Your body naturally creates 5-HTP from tryptophan. Then it's converted into serotonin. Serotonin is what's referred to as a neurotransmitter and this particular one has many powerful effects on the brain.  It's known to help improve your mood, but it also suppresses hunger and helps to curb weight gain. Increasing your level of serotonin makes hunger simply disappear, so you don't even feel the need to reduce the amount of food you eat. In fact, one study showed that women were automatically eating less carbs without even a hint of purposely trying to do so. How it Works While you may think that simply taking a serotonin supplement would work, it doesn't. That's because serotonin can't access the brain due to the blood brain barrier. 5-HTP on the hand, can bypass that barrier and directly access your brain. The Research Though you've probably never heard of 5-HTP until recently, it's actually been studied for more than 30 years. There have been several clinical trials that have proven just how well it helps with controlling hunger and losing weight. In s study www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2468734 here, women who used this supplement before eating ate over 1,000 calories less than those who didn't. And in another study, women who took the supplement lost five times more weight over 12 weeks than those were taking a placebo. If you're the type of person who always feels hungry and you have a hard time controlling your eating habits then 5-HTP may be just what you need to finally lose weight and keep your weight under control for the long run.
