I don't have a link to the actual paper, which is probably behind a paywall anyway, but this <a href="https://www.focussupplements.co.uk/blogs/updates/the-science-behind-5-htp" target="_blank">https://www.focussupplements.co.uk/blogs/updates/the-science-behind-5-htp</a> talks a bit about it. I can't find anything where it's been demonstrated, in a controlled trial, to suppress appetite in humans, being usesd more for its antidepressant effects instead. Personally, I wouldn't touch it with a ten foot broom handle, but then again I am on several other medications that it could mix with.</p></blockquote><p></p>
