Product Description
Heavy training and everyday life stress both draw down the same neurotransmitters your brain relies on for mood and motivation. Thorne's Emotion Balance Support resupplies the direct raw materials those neurotransmitters are made from, combining L-tyrosine, 5-HTP, and GABA with adaptogenic botanicals and active B vitamins in one formula.
Supplies raw materials, not just herbal support – L-tyrosine and 5-HTP are direct precursors to the neurotransmitters tied to mood and motivation, a different approach than adaptogen-only formulas that work more indirectly.
Includes GABA in its most researched natural form – GABA is included as PharmaGABA, a patented, naturally sourced form studied for supporting a calm, relaxed state without sedation.
Contains no St. John's Wort – This formula avoids Hypericum entirely, which matters if you're on any medication metabolized by the CYP3A4 enzyme, since St. John's Wort is well known to interfere with that pathway.
Tyrosine and 5-HTP serve as building blocks your body converts into dopamine and serotonin, two neurotransmitters tied closely to mood, motivation, and stress resilience. GABA works differently, acting directly as a calming, inhibitory neurotransmitter itself rather than needing conversion first. Rhodiola and eleuthero round out the formula as adaptogenic botanicals, supporting the body's broader stress response, while active folate (as L-5-MTHF) and B12 (as methylcobalamin) support the neurological pathways tied to mood regulation. This formula is non-habit forming.
How to Use Thorne Emotion Balance Support
Dose: Take two capsules two times daily, or as recommended by your health-care practitioner.
Note: Do not use this product. 5-HTP is contraindicated for concurrent use with SSRIs, MAOIs, tricyclic antidepressants, carbidopa, or tramadol, due to the risk of serotonin syndrome, a serious and potentially dangerous condition. This applies regardless of why or how you'd otherwise use this product.
If pregnant or nursing, do not use this product. This product is contraindicated for anyone with a history of hypersensitivity to its ingredients.
