Helps B3 to synthetize

Tryptophan is an essential amino acid needed – among other functions – to enable serotonin production

L-tryptophan is an essential amino acid – our bodies do not make it, so we absorb it from food -, precursor for the synthesis of melatonin and serotonin, a hormone and a neurotransmitter involved with mood and stress response, among others.

When our levels of serotonin in the body are low, we can feel tired or have a feeling of discouragement, apathy and / or stress, among others. In addition, serotonin also promotes cognitive ability, promoting concentration and good mental performance.

L-tryptophan is naturally found in animal and plant proteins. Eggs, Bananas, chocolate… Just to name a few.
