L-Tryptophan is an essential amino acid that is converted into L-5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) in the body. 5-HTP is then converted into serotonin and melatonin. Normal serotonin levels have been associated with normal moods, appropriate appetite and weight maintenance, and proper sleep.* Our 5-HTP is derived from a plant source, and is carefully tested to ensure its purity and to guarantee the absence of contaminants.

A formulation of 17 naturally occurring amino acids in their free forms, including 9 essential amino acids, as well as 5-L-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP). Contains no L-tryptophan. 5-HTP is in the same metabolic pathway as L-tryptophan, and is the immediate precursor to serotonin and melatonin. This formulation is appropriate for food-sensitive individuals.

L-citrulline, like L-arginine and L-ornithine, is a metabolite in the urea cycle and is involved in liver detoxification and vasodilation pathways.* It is produced in the urea cycle when carbamoyl phosphate is converted to citrulline in the ornithine carbamoyltransferase reaction. When endogenous supplies of ornithine carbamoyltransferase are insufficient, supplemental L-citrulline has been shown to support ammonia incorporation and liver detoxification of ammonia.* Free form amino acid, high purity, well tolerated. For additional support, one may include Item #70740 Magnesium Malate Forte.

L-glutamine is important for the development of enterocytes, a type of cell that is plentiful in the epithelial lining of the gastrointestinal tract. L-glutamine can help conserve muscle glycogen stores, stimulate growth hormone production, support neuronal health, and cross the blood-brain barrier where the brain uses it for fuel.* Free form amino acid, high purity, well tolerated.

L-lysine is an essential amino acid, important for the absorption of calcium, the formation of collagen (contained in cartilage, connective tissue, skin, hair and bone), and the production of bone tissue.* Free form amino acid, high purity, well tolerated.
