Griffonia Simplicifolia Seed Extract Benefits:

1. effect: Experimental observation of the utilization of TRP (tryptophan) in patients with depression found that the utilization of L-TRP in patients with major depression was significantly lower than that in patients with mild depression.

2. Central analgesic effect: TRP may exert a central analgesic effect by increasing the content of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HTP) in the central nervous system.

3. The effect of cardiovascular system

4. Hypnotic effect: 5-hydroxytryptophan can generate serotonin, the precursor of the nerve hormone, with the help of vitamin B6 in the body, thereby promoting sleep and mental stability.

5. Anti-stress physiological effects

6. The effect on neuroendocrine activity. 5-hydroxytryptophan can be converted into some hormones to directly participate in endocrine activities, and griffonia simplicifolia extract can also be converted into central neurotransmitter 5-hydroxytryptamine to indirectly affect the release of neurohormones.

7. The effect of suppressing appetite
