Description
Griffonia simplicifolia is a very recognized climbing legume used in herbal medicine because its seeds contain a high concentration of 5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) which is an amino acid precursor of serotonin.
Native to West and Central Africa, Griffonia simplicifolia has been used since the dawn of time in traditional African medicine. This medicinal plant is very appreciated for its anxiolytic and mood-regulating and sleep-regulating properties. Griffonia 5-HTP represents an interesting alternative to synthetic antidepressants and neuroleptics.
Griffonia is now used worldwide to treat insomnia, anxiety, and depressive disorders or migraines.
