Description

Hydroxytryptophol (5-hydroxytryptophol) is a naturally occurring indole derivative that is found in mammals, insects, and plants. It is a metabolite of serotonin, and is produced by the enzyme monoamine oxidase A (MAO-A). Hydroxytryptophol is thought to play a role in the regulation of sleep, appetite, and mood. It has also been shown to have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Research on hydroxytryptophol is ongoing, with the aim of understanding its role in human health and potential therapeutic applications.'
