SeroPlus was developed by Pure Encapsulations in conjunction with Dr.
James Greenblatt as part of The Integrative Mental Health Series, a line
of products based on scientific findings and decades of clinical
experience. SeroPlus contains 5-HTP to support healthy mood balance by
providing serotonin building blocks. By helping to form serotonin, 5-HTP
balance serotonin function in the brain for emotional wellness. Also
critical to each formulation in this series is the inclusion of vitamin B6, zinc and Metafolin®
L-5-MTHF cofactors; L-5MTHF is the form of folate that easily crosses
the blood-brain barrier. These nutrients are often depleted in
individuals due to medications, inadequate diets and toxic environmental
exposures, compromising the ability to properly metabolize nutrients.
Along with zinc, vitamin B6 is a cofactor in amino acid metabolism, including the metabolism of 5-HTP into serotonin.
Metafolin® is a registered trademark of Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany.
Recommended Use: Helps to support healthy mood balance.
Recommended Dosage: Adults: Take 1 capsule 3 times daily with food
a few hours before or after taking other medications or natural
health products. Use for a minimum of 1 week to see beneficial
effects. Consult a healthcare practitioner for use beyond 3 months.
Warning: Do not use if you are pregnant, breastfeeding or have
scleroderma. Consult
a healthcare practitioner prior to use if you are taking carbidopa or

L-tryptophan,
S-adenosylmethionine (SAMe), St. John’s wort, antidepressants,

counter cough and cold medication containing dextromethorphan,

healthcare practitioner if symptoms persist
or worsen. Discontinue use and consult a healthcare practitioner if you
show signs of
weakness, oral ulcers, abdominal pain accompanied by severe muscle pain,
or experience
skin changes. Some people may experience drowsiness, diarrhea, nausea,
vomiting and
abdominal pain. Exercise caution if operating heavy machinery, driving a
