How to increase serotonin – but what does serotonin do?
1. Mood Regulation:
Serotonin is often called the body’s natural “feel-good” chemical, and it plays a key role in mood and emotional well-being.
Low levels of serotonin have been linked to depression and other mood disorders.
2. Sleep:
Serotonin is involved in regulating the sleep-wake cycle and can influence the quality of sleep.
3. Digestion:
Serotonin plays a role in controlling bowel function and maintaining gut health
