L-Tryptophan from NeuroActive is a nootropic supplement that assists the body in producing serotonin which is critical for mood support and overall cognition. Tryptophan is an essential amino acid that is a precursor to serotonin, sleep hormone and niacin(Vitamin B3).
Serotonin is often referred to as the "happiness molecule". Low serotonin levels could result in insomnia, chronic fatigue, depression and mood-related symptoms. Tryptophan is converted to 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) in the brain, which produces serotonin. Consult a healthcare professional before use, particularly if you are already on mood-enhancing medication such as SSRI's, SNRI's and MAOI's as it may cause Serotonin Syndrome if there is too much serotonin within the body.
