Unlike tryptophan, 5-HTP is not a proteinogenic amino acid – it is not used for muscle building, but rather specifically for the formation of the neurotransmitter serotonin. Since 5-HTP is the precursor to serotonin, it is directly bioavailable – without conversion steps, which would be necessary with tryptophan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrom what is NatuGena 5-HTP obtained?\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur 5-HTP is obtained from the seeds of the African black bean (Griffonia simplicifolia). This plant belongs to the legume family and grows wild in the rainforests of Central and West Africa.
