[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.

Lynn demonstrates how to make White Chocolate Cranberry Pistachio Cookies that would be perfect for the Holidays. These are full of good ingredients. Makes about 2-1/2 dozen cookies.

I filmed this video on my iPhone. My husband usually films all of my videos, but I wanted to share this recipe with you. I took them to a Holiday neighborhood cookies exchange the day I made them and he was working and couldn’t film.

½ cup butter, softened
½ cup packed brown sugar
½ cup white sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1-1/2 cup all purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking soda
1 cup white chocolate chips
½ cup pistachio nuts, shelled
1 cup dried cranberries
Note: add ¼ teaspoon salt, if your nuts are not salted

Preheat oven to 375°. Grease a cookie sheet or line with parchment paper and set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the butter and sugars. Using an electric mixer, cream the butter and sugars until fluffy for about 3-5 minutes.

Beat in the egg and vanilla extract.

In a separate bowl, combine the flour and baking soda. Using a wooden spoon, carefully stir the flour mixture into the butter mixture, just until combined. Stir in the white chocolate chips, dried cranberries and pistachio nuts.

Drop heaping spoonfuls onto the cookie sheet.

Bake the cookies for 8-10 minutes (it took mine about 11 minutes) or until they just begin to turn golden around the edges. Allow to cool for 2 minutes on the cookie sheet before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
