Griffonia Simplicifolia Extract is derived from the seeds of Griffonia simplicifolia, a plant native to West Africa. The extract is a natural source of 5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP), a direct precursor to serotonin – the neurotransmitter responsible for mood balance, sleep regulation, and appetite control.
5-HTP is widely used in dietary supplements for its potential to support emotional well-being, improve sleep quality, and reduce cravings or appetite. Compared to synthetic alternatives, plant-derived 5-HTP from Griffonia is considered a safe and natural option.
