High 5-Hydroxyindoleacetate

[Guest guest]

I was looking at 's Organix and she has many highs but one stands out:

5-Hydroxyindoleacetate 95% Reference Interval 1.2 - 39---- has >160

!!!!

In the brochure it says it is a Neurotransmitter breakdown product, and that it

is related to Total Body Serotonin production.

What does that mean in " dummies " words?

A blockage in the seratonin pathway. A metametrix panel would recommend

appropriate levels of nutrients to help this. My son too had this.He doesn't

process tryptophan or precursors to it.We gave 5 htp and it seemed to help.As we

chelated the need for this declined.

Hope this helps,

Hi Joyce,

Does veronica have sleep issues? I've always understood that 5-HIAA is what alot

of tryptophan is being wasted to instead of following the route of tryptophan -

5HTP - serotonin- melatonin - hence our children's prblems with sleep as they

are not converting properly! We have to give melatonin every night to be sure of

sleep and that doesn't work if we have gut bugs as we have at the moment.

NO, she sleeps 11 hours every day. But she does have anxiety and self

regulation issues!

I don't remeber but probably yes. This is July testing and I stopped 5HTP

about a month ago...

I am now starting L-Theanine and later plan to add GABA and Taurine... any

conflicts with that?

Re: High 5-Hydroxyindoleacetate

Are you using 5-htp or tryptophan? If you are....stop, the levels are

high.
