A dietary supplement that is a concentrated source of 5-hydroxytryptophan, L-tryptophan and vitamin B6.
African black bean (Griffonia simplicifolia (Vahl ex DC.) Baill.) is a plant belonging to the Fabaceae family, native to the tropical regions of West and Central Africa. It grows as a small, evergreen shrub that can reach up to 3 metres in height under favourable conditions. Its flowers grow in clusters, while its fruits develop into distinctive, obliquely shaped cylindrical pods. One of the valuable compounds found in African black bean seed extract is 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP), an organic compound classified as an amino acid.
OstroVit 5-HTP VEGE contains African black bean seed extract standardised to 25% 5-hydroxytryptophan. This standardisation helps maintain consistent product quality and ensures a specified amount of the compound in each serving.
L-tryptophan is an organic compound classified as an essential amino acid. As the human body cannot produce it on its own, it must be obtained through the diet or dietary supplements. L-tryptophan occurs naturally in foods such as dairy products, meat, seafood, bananas, avocados and dried pulses.
Vitamin B6 - pyridoxine is a water-soluble B vitamin that the human body cannot synthesise on its own and must therefore obtain from external sources. It is found mainly in offal, wholegrain products and dried pulses, and is also available in dietary supplements.
Vitamin B6 contributes to normal protein and glycogen metabolism, supports the normal functioning of the nervous system and contributes to normal red blood cell formation. It also contributes to normal homocysteine metabolism, supports the normal function of the immune system and helps reduce tiredness and fatigue.
To safeguard our customers' health, we regularly have our products tested by an independent, accredited laboratory to ensure they meet the highest quality standards.

Griffonia simplicifolia seed extract, shell (hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose), inulin.
The HPMC (hydroxypropyl methylcellulose) capsule used in this product is a high-quality capsule made from plant-based materials. The term “plant-based capsule shell (coating agent: hydroxypropyl methylcellulose)” has replaced the previous wording “filler: hydroxypropyl methylcellulose” to more clearly emphasize the function and plant-based origin of the capsule. The capsule itself remains unchanged and serves solely as the product’s shell-it is not a filler.
Take 1 serving (1 capsule) daily. Do not use with other medications, especially prescription antidepressants (SSRIs).
