[What is 5-HTP]

5-HTP (5-Hydroxytryptophan) is a chemical by-product of the protein building block L-tryptophan. It is also produced commercially from the seeds of an African plant known as Griffonia simplicifolia 5-HTP is used for sleep disorders such as insomnia, depression, anxiety, migraine and tension-type headaches, fibromyalgia, obesity, premenstrual syndrome (PMS), premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD), attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), seizure disorder, and Parkinson’s disease.

 [How does it work?]

5-HTP works in the brain and central nervous system by increasing the production of the chemical serotonin. Serotonin can affect sleep, appetite, temperature, sexual behavior, and pain sensation. Since 5-HTP increases the synthesis of serotonin, it is used for several diseases where serotonin is believed to play an important role including depression, insomnia, obesity, and many other conditions.

[Function]

Depression. Some clinical research shows that taking 5-HTP by mouth improve symptoms of depression in some people. Some clinical research shows that taking 5-HTP by mouth might be as beneficial as certain prescription antidepressant drugs for improving depression symptoms. In most studies, 150-800 mg daily of 5-HTP was taken. In some cases, higher doses have been used.

Down syndrome. Some research shows that giving 5-HTP to infants with Down syndrome might improve muscle and activity. Other research shows that it does not improve muscle or development when taken from infancy until 3-4 years of age. Research also shows that taking 5-HTP along with conventional prescription drugs does improve development, social skills, or language skills.

Anxiety 5-HTP was found to be protective against carbon dioxide-induced panic attacks. One study compared 5-HTP and the prescription medication clomipramine for anxiety. Clomipramine is a tricyclic antidepressant used for treating obsessive-compulsive disorder. 5-HTP was found to be somewhat effective in reducing anxiety symptoms, but not as effective as clomipramine.

Sleep 5-HTP supplements fared a little better for insomnia.5-HTP decreased the time required to get to sleep and decreased the number of nighttime awakenings. Taking 5-HTP along with GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid), a relaxing neurotransmitter, reduced the time it took to fall asleep and increased the duration and quality of sleep. One study found that children with night terrors benefited from 5-HTP.

The rapid coagulation of the blood is due to Sangre de Dragos ability to co-precipitate with proteins and other components of the blood and underlying tissue. The healing properties of Sangre de Drago have been linked to the presence of a compound called taspine. This was in part discovered by observing that the most effective Sangre de Drago came from the upper jungle of Peru where the sap contains much more taspine than, for example, the less potent Ecuadorian sap. Nevertheless, many scientists believe that the efficacy of Sangre de Drago as a cicatrizant agent is perhaps better explained by the presence of an array of chemicals acting in concert rather than a single chemical. This is well exemplified by the documented benefits of Sangre de Drago on gastric ulcers. Aside from the presence of taspine, the healing effect of Sangre de Drago on gastric ulcers seems to be a combination of the presence of strong anti-bacterial components acting on the bacterium Helicobacter pylori, a bacterium strongly associated with gastric ulcers and believed to be a causal agent, and anti-inflammatory properties.

A recent scientific study revealed that nearly 90% of dried Sangre de Drago sap was composed of one of the most potent antioxidants, proanthocyanidin, also known as Pycnogenol® and grape seed extract. This strong presence of antioxidant activity may in part explain the effect of Sangre de Drago on colitis and other digestive disorders, by reducing inflammation in the intestinal mucosa. The high concentration of bitter bioflavonoids proanthocyanidins are bioflavonoids- in Sangre de Drago may explain its action of intestinal parasite. It is also noteworthy that a U.S.-based pharmaceutical company has developed two pharmaceutical drugs that contain antiviral constituents isolated and extracted from the bark and resin of Sangre de Drago.

In conclusion, lets simply say that the combination of antimicrobial, antioxidant, antiviral, and cicatrizant properties makes Sangre de Drago a fascinating yet complex herbal remedy with exceptional healing properties.
