L-Tryptophan (TRP) is one of the 20 amino acids encoded directly by the human genome. In addition to acting as a protein block, TRP is a biochemical precursor to the neurotransmitter serotonin and neurohormone melatonin. In addition, the human body is capable of synthesizing niacin from TRP. Serotonin plays an important role in controlling mood and impulses. Using vitamin B6, TRP is converted to 5-HTP (5-hydroxytryptophan) and then to serotonin. Low TRP levels are often associated with poor mood and may arise due to stress. Food supplements containing l-tryptophan show an ability to increase serotonin when its low levels are common, such as during PMS, seasonal emotional disorder, addiction, and weight loss. Absorption of amino acids included in small peptides is more effective than that of free amino acids.
L-tryptophan peptides help calm, quality sleep and good mood. It reduces carbohydrate hunger.
Advantages:
Patented Formula PepForm L-Tryptophan, Peptide-rich;
Contains 500 mg of L-tryptophan;
It has a longer lasting effect.
PepForm is isolated from whey protein and concentrated in L-tryptophan peptides. It has been found that in the form of peptides, the amino acid has better bioavailability and longer duration of action. In order to concentrate the TRP peptides in the Jarrow Formulas L-tryptophan food additive as PepForm®, a special technology is used. It provides both bioavailability and TRP concentration. PepForm® is a patented formula that increases blood levels of TRP by 25% more than free amino acids.
