Capsiplex - Five HTP along with desire for food handle

By Owen Howarth


You might have heard of the weight loss supplement 5 HTP but what happens it is?? Lets get back on basics and explain what 5-HTP is and what it can do.

Foods like meat, peanuts and sesame seeds all contain an protein called Tryptophan which our mind use to transform into 5-HTP (5-Hydroxytryptophan).

Our mind then utilize 5-HTP and turn it into serotonin, that's one of the 'happy' chemicals that helps control our appetite, mood and sleep patterns.

Many individuals suffer from low serotonin levels, especially those that live in stress-filled everyday lives.

Using a low serotonin level can lead to many being obese, crave sugar and then leave them also wanting more carbohydrates than normal.

They also experience periods of depression, get frequent headaches and also have vague muscle pains and aches. Low levels of serotonin will also be believed to be to blame for moodiness and depression, and even overeating.

Understandably this is any dieter's worst nightmare, however much more of us than you may think experience having lower levels of serotonin.

All of these conditions are fixable by raising your brain serotonin levels as well as a good way to do this is via a quality 5-HTP supplement.

While anti-depressants work by preserve the serotonin our body's produce "free" in the brains, 5-HTP helps our body's produce more serotonin as well as in theory help to keep our "happy" "free" levels higher.

Low serotonin (or poor metabolism of serotonin) leaves us craving more sugar (especially women during PMS) If we have food cravings it is generally our body's technique for telling us we need a serotonin 'hit'.

Eating simple carbs like white bread or chocolate can boost our brain's serotonin levels (that's why it feels delicious).

Unfortunately getting relief by doing this is only temporary and leads to the spiteful cycle of blood glucose levels going up and down being a yo-yo, which ultimately can leave you feeling worse!

Keeping a steady balance of the serotonin levels using 5HTP you'll be able to control appetite and beat cravings for food.

In summary, going for a 5-HTP supplement can help us control our appetites and lose weight. Our brain can absorb Tryptophan easier when you have carbohydrate present.

When the world thinks depressed we have a tendency to crave food created from starch, which lacking the knowledge of it, is our body's means of trying to absorb more tryptophan, which reinforces our serotonin levels.

Taking 5-HTP like a supplement can boost our serotonin levels naturally which avoids our cravings for food and hopefully avoids us excess weight.
