OverviewSerotonin is commonly known as being a mood stabilizer in our body. It can be described as a chemical messenger in the human body that not only helps in boosting our mood but also helps in establishing a healthy sleeping pattern. Serotonin levels are known to have a direct effect on our behavior and mood. Therefore, this chemical is typically associated with living longer and feeling good. There are now supplements also available that increase the serotonin levels through the amino acid known as tryptophan. The chemical serotonin is actually synthesized from tryptophan itself. However, there is also a more natural and healthier way to increase your serotonin levels. This is where a serotonin diet comes in. Serotonin diet simply means consuming foods that contain tryptophan. Let us take a closer look at what is a serotonin diet and foods that are high in serotonin.Serotonin is a very important hormone for our body as it has a profound effect on our mood and sleeping patterns. Serotonin is also known to control the body's blood pressure levels. Serotonin is actually made up of the amino acid tryptophan. Tryptophan can easily be obtained from food and then transported to the brain. Once it reaches the brain, tryptophan gets converted to serotonin. Therefore, a serotonin diet simply refers to a diet that is rich in foods containing tryptophan. While serotonin supplements are also available, it is always a better option to increase the content of tryptophan-rich foods rather than resorting to supplements. Eating foods high in tryptophan will help increase your serotonin levels.Research is still ongoing to understand just how much tryptophan-rich foods you need to consume to effectively increase the serotonin levels in the brain. However, studies have shown that the depletion of tryptophan is usually associated with mood disorders such as anxiety and depression. A diet that is low in tryptophan levels is also shown to decrease the serotonin levels in the brain.
