The Power of 5-HTP

You can buy 5-HTP over the counter, but it is not effective. 5-HTP must be combined with a substance called Carbidopa in order to work effectively in the body. Dramatic Weight Loss Center is the only weight loss facility in Georgia that offers this incredibly effective compound formula of 5-HTP and Carbidopa.

5-HTP is the abbreviation for 5-hydroxytryptophan which is a precursor for Serotonin and it occurs naturally in the body. Every time we eat food the body begins converting 5-HTP slowly to Serotonin. The Serotonin continues to increase until it makes us feel full. When Serotonin levels drop to a certain level we begin to feel hunger and cravings return. We could lose weight easily if we could find a way to keep Serotonin levels high 24 hours a day, then the body would never send out hunger signals.

The Problem: For some unknown reason the body’s enzymes destroy 5-HTP when it is taken by itself preventing it from being converted to Serotonin.

The Solution: After years of research Dr. Mansfield found that if he added a small amount of another compound called Carbidopa to 5-HTP, that the Carbidopa would act as a decoy and the body’s enzymes would chase the Carbidopa and allow 5-HTP to be converted to Serotonin. When Serotonin is sustained at certain levels cravings are eliminated. That is why it is important to take Dr. Mansfield’s specially formulated 5-HTP/Carbidopa capsules every six hours to eliminate hunger and cravings 24 hours per day! It is okay to take more than the usual three daily doses if the patient starts to have hunger or cravings sooner than 6 hours. Patients starting 5-HTP/Carbidopa must do a series of test doses to determine the most effective dose for them. This has to be explained to the patient by one of our staff members.

It is illegal to sell prescription medicines without a prescription. Patients must be seen in a doctor’s office for the initial prescription. It is legal to monitor patients by email or phone calls after the patient has been seen in an office.
