Irwin Naturals Double Potency 5-HTP Extra


Feeling kind of down lately? Don’t you wish you could help support a brighter mood? Irwin Naturals Double Potency 5-HTP Extra is a comprehensive mood supplement made to promote emotional balance and help you feel more like yourself!*


The amino acids are the not-so-secret ingredients behind this formula. 5-HTP helps with serotonin production* while L-theanine is included for the calm-without-drowsy factor.* Together, these amino acids may help with relaxation and everyday stress,* which is exactly what you need! Whether you’re searching for better mental well-being or a little help handling the effects of stress, Irwin Naturals Double Potency 5-HTP Extra is the stress-busting and mood-boosting supplement for you!*




  • 5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP): This naturally-occurring amino acid is extracted from Griffonia simplicifolia, a shrub native to Africa. 5-HTP is a direct precursor of serotonin, which plays a role in mood regulation.* Irwin Naturals 5-HTP Extra provides 5-HTP to support serotonin production and help maintain a balanced mood and overall state of mind.*


  • L-Theanine: L-theanine complements the effects of 5-HTP and is often used for relaxation.* It plays a role in the balance of certain brain chemicals, such as serotonin, dopamine, and cortisol, which are connected to mood, emotions, and sleep.*


  • Adaptogenic herbs: Combined with a special mix of adaptogenic herbals, like holy basil, damiana, and saffron, 5-HTP Extra may help promote relaxation and a calm state of mind.* Adaptogens are often used to help the body adjust to everyday stress,* so next time you’re feeling a little burned out, your body has extra support.*


  • Bioperine Complex: When it comes to certain nutrients like magnesium and vitamin C, bioavailability is always an issue. Thankfully, Irwin Naturals 5-HTP Extra has a special Bioperine Complex that helps enhance the bioavailability of these liquid soft gels, making them easier to absorb.* In other words, it helps with nutrient absorption.*

FAQs About Irwin Naturals Double Potency 5-HTP Extra Liquid Soft-Gels

Q: Does this help with mood, or is it more for relaxation? A: Both. Each 2-softgel serving gives you 100 mg of 5-HTP and 100 mg of L-theanine, plus lemon balm, saffron, and holy basil. So it’s more of a calm-mood, relaxed, slightly uplifted kind of formula.

Q: How many soft-gels should I take per day? A: The suggested use is two liquid soft-gels twice a day with meals and a full glass of water. If you take the full amount, that gives you 200 mg of 5-HTP per day.

Q: Why does this one have fish oil in it? A: It’s part of the formula. Each serving gives you 800 mg of fish oil, including 144 mg EPA and 96 mg DHA, and it’s there to support the mood side of the blend.

Q: I've heard that 5-HTP can make you sleepy. Is that true? A: Yes, it can. Some people get drowsy with this one, so I’d be careful with driving or trying it for the first time when you need to stay sharp.

Q: My doctor said to be careful with antidepressants. Can I take this anyway? A: I’d check with your doctor or pharmacist first. This has 5-HTP at 100 mg per serving, so you do want to be careful with antidepressants and even some pain medicines because of how they affect serotonin.

Q: Should I take this on an empty stomach or with food? A: With food. That’s how I’d take it, and it usually sits better that way, especially since the softgels also have fish oil, magnesium citrate, and ginger.

Q: Can I take this if I'm pregnant or nursing? A: No, I’d skip it unless your OB or midwife tells you otherwise. The label says not to use it if you may become pregnant or if you’re nursing.
