الخلاصة

5-HTP may support better sleep through its role in serotonin and melatonin production, but human evidence remains limited despite strong preclinical results.

  • 35 out of 42 studies show positive effects on sleep, but most are animal or lab studies
  • 5-HTP is a natural precursor to serotonin and melatonin, key neurotransmitters for sleep regulation
  • Only 1 randomized controlled trial (RCT) in humans has been conducted
  • A GABA/5-HTP combination has shown sleep-promoting effects in preclinical models
