About Steadfast Nutrition Wellness 5 HTP Vitamin (60 Capsules)

Steadfast 5-HTP is a drug-free way to induce calmness. It consists of a blend of 5-Hydroxytryptophan, Glycine, Taurine, Niacin, Vitamin B6 which collectively work in our body to suppress stress and anxiety levels. The primary ingredient 5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP), has been shown to boost serotonin synthesis in our body naturally, thereby enhancing mood, reducing fatigue and alleviating stress.

Description:

5-HTP is an amino acid naturally produced in our body. It acts as a precursor of serotonin, which is a neurotransmitter. Serotonin plays a critical role in the regulation of sleep, appetite, stress, aggression, depression and pain sensation. Commercially, 5-HTP is extracted from the seeds of the Griffonia simplicifolia plant, found in Africa. With changed lifestyle behaviours and demanding schedules, stress has become an inevitable part of our life. Irregular sleep cycles further contribute to increasing the stress hormone - cortisol, thereby increasing the risk of depression and stress-related disorders. Steadfast 5-HTP being packed with amino acid like 5-HTP, glycine, taurine supports mental calmness, increases melatonin production and relaxes our brain nerves. Steadfast 5-HTP is an excellent alternative for people who refrain from consuming medications like antidepressants.

Features:

1. Relieves Stress and Anxiety - Steadfast 5-HTP is a clinically effective way to reduce our stress and anxiety levels. 5-HTP safely increases the levels of serotonin in the brain, relaxes our nerves and relieves stress. Another key point to consider is that serotonin can not cross the blood-brain barrier unlike 5-HTP, which gives 5-HTP an additional edge over serotonin.

2. Promotes Sleep Health - Lack of sleep is directly linked with a higher risk of frequent headaches, poor cognitive health and depression. Steadfast 5-HTP is enriched with 5-HTP along with glycine and taurine. These three amino acid together enhance our sleep quality due to their brain calming effects. 5-HTP enhances serotonin production in our brain that gets utilised in the production of melatonin - the sleep hormone. Melatonin is critically needed to regulate sleep. Some studies have shown that the combination of 5-HTP and GABA (Gamma-AminoButyric Acid) makes us fall asleep within less time and promotes overall sleep quality. In addition, vitamin B6 present in Steadfast 5-HTP plays a crucial role in the regulation and synthesis of neurotransmitters like serotonin, GABA and dopamine.

3. Induces Calmness - Steadfast 5-HTP contains taurine which is known to bind with GABA receptors, thus calming our brain nerves. Glycine has a soothing effect on our brain and assists us in falling asleep by bringing down our core body temperature.

4. Minimises Risk of Depression - The prevalence of depression is rising globally. As per the WHO report published in 2017, 4.5% of the Indian population suffers from depressive disorders and 3% from anxiety. The figures are scary, but they are facts too. It is clearly evident that stress and anxiety-related issues should never be overlooked. Steadfast 5-HTP is one such solution that can help reduce symptoms of depression. The active ingredients not only eases our mind but also uplifts our mood making us feel relaxed and happy.

5. Promotes Cognitive Health - Vitamin B6 present in Steadfast 5-HTP reduces the levels of homocysteine in the body, which otherwise if present in excess, might damage our brain nerves, cause cognitive impairment, making us prone to neurological degenerative disorders like Alzheimer’s, Huntington’s and Parkinson’s disease. Besides this, Steadfast 5-HTP contains niacin (vitamin B3) which is very important for the growth and maintenance of the Central Nervous System (CNS).

6. Powerful Antioxidant - Steadfast 5-HTP also works as an excellent antioxidant source due to the presence of taurine. Clinical trials have demonstrated the efficacy of taurine in combating free radicals, fighting oxidative stress and keeping brain cells healthy. Low levels of taurine are associated with a higher incidence of eye, ear and brain-related disorders. Further, glycine present in Steadfast 5-HTP is also used to synthesise another potent antioxidant - glutathione in our body.

7. Minimises Risk of Metabolic Disorders - Elevated stress levels makes us more prone to hypertension, diabetes and heart disorders. Studies support the role of glycine and vitamin B6 in providing protection against heart diseases by keeping our blood vessels healthy. Similar to taurine, glycine also improves insulin sensitivity and reduces insulin resistance.

8. Helps Managing Weight - High-stress levels in the body alter the secretion of appetite-regulating hormones - leptin and ghrelin. It has been shown that high cortisol or stress levels lead to an increase in hunger cravings of foods high in fat and sugar content. Excess intake of fatty and sugary foods increases the risk of obesity and other associated metabolic disorders. Hence, Steadfast 5-HTP is also beneficial in managing weight due to its stress-busting ability.
