The chemical name is 5-hydroxy-3-indolyl-α-aminopropionic acid. Compared with synthetic 5-hydroxytryptophan, it is safer to use. People with low serotonin (5-HT) levels are more prone to depression, impulsivity and even aggressive behavior. 5-Hydroxytryptophan can be converted into 5-HT through decarboxylation in the body, which can help the body increase 5-HT levels, is an important neurological drug.
