BONO 5-HTP 100 mg (60 plant-based capsules) contains 100 mg 5-HTP per capsule, from a standardised extract of Griffonia simplicifolia. One capsule per day is sufficient.
Griffonia simplicifolia is a West African legume whose seeds are naturally rich in 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP). 5-HTP is related to the amino acid L-tryptophan. We use a seed extract that is standardised to 25% 5-HTP, so each capsule provides the same amount. In addition to the standardised 5-HTP, the extract contains other substances that naturally occur in the seed.

5-HTP stands for 5-hydroxytryptophan. It is a natural substance found in the seed of the Griffonia simplicifolia plant and is related to the amino acid L-tryptophan.
A standardised extract means that the amount of a specific substance is precisely determined. In this supplement, 400 mg Griffonia simplicifolia seed extract per capsule provides 100 mg 5-HTP.
L-tryptophan is an essential amino acid that naturally occurs in protein-rich foods. 5-HTP is a substance related to L-tryptophan and is barely if at all present in regular foods.
Take one to two capsules per day. Some people may experience mild nausea after using Griffonia simplicifolia. This can be avoided by taking the capsules with a meal and, if using 2 capsules, spreading the dosage throughout the day.
It is not suitable for children, pregnant women, or women who are breastfeeding. If you use medicines that affect brain function, such as antidepressants or sedatives, you should consult your doctor or pharmacist before use.
Yes, Griffonia simplicifolia is also known as 'slaapmutsjeskruid'. Since 'slaapmutsje' can sometimes refer to other herbs and this may cause confusion, we use the botanical name Griffonia simplicifolia.
