Science & Research
Verifiable Science
SeroPlus promotes serotonin synthesis to support relaxation, moderate occasional stress and maintain healthy eating behavior. This formula provides the serotonin precursor, 5-HTP, and inositol, which supports healthy sensitization of serotonin receptors.2 Taurine also supports healthy serotonin activity, potentially by maintaining healthy reuptake.3 Niacinamide and zinc enhance 5-HTP availability.4,5 This formula includes the cofactors magnesium, vitamin C, vitamin B6 and Metafolin® L-5-MTHF to support serotonin production and positive mood.6,7,8 In a randomized, controlled trial involving elderly individuals, magnesium offered statistically significant support for positive mood.9 In another double-blind, randomized and placebo-controlled trial involving young women, zinc supplementation offered statistically significant support for positive mood.10‡
