Lack of serotonin, or "pleasure hormone," has been linked to many diseases, such as migraines, depression, nervous, eating, and sexual disorders!
Why can serotonin levels drop?
There has been a lot of research on this topic, which is quite diverse. For example, it has been shown that during menopause, as estrogen levels fall, so does serotonin levels, which can contribute to mood swings. In addition, the deficiency condition makes it "desirable", meaning that the body tries to increase pleasure hormone levels with a desire for certain foods.
The same is true for premenstrual syndrome, the symptoms of which are likely caused by the interaction of sex hormones and serotonin. That is, the nervousness, depression, craving for certain foods, and decreased libido typical of the days before amenstruation may also be associated with this.
An Argentine study also shows that those who work in both shifts and only at night have lower serotonin levels than those who traditionally work during the day. This, in turn, can significantly increase the chances of developing anxiety and depression.
Excessive eating can also be a sign of a decrease in serotonin, as carbohydrate intake can only raise serotonin levels for a short time. In other words, even sadness and depression caused by the lack of pleasure hormones can cause extra pounds, if we want to fool our brains with sweets and cakes.
How can we increase serotonin levels?
The enormous importance of physical activity has also been demonstrated in this area. This is because exercise is also a form of stress for the body, to which, however, with proper and regular exercise, the body begins to adapt and increases the production of substances involved in the stress response: for example, noradrenaline and serotonin.
Similar substances are also produced during love life, which stimulate blood circulation and cause general well-being. In winter, the main problem is the lack of sunlight. This is because sunlight significantly improves mood, as it brings serotonin levels to optimal levels. So, except for the noon hours, it is worth spending as much time outdoors as possible.
Methods that will make us feel better
Serotonin is a neurotransmitter responsible for mood balance and thought patterns, which play a role in important things like general mood, sexuality, appetite, sleep, memory, learning, or heat balance. What can we do for a better mood?
Certain vitamins, minerals and amino acids also contribute to the production of serotonin. Examples are vitamins B5 and B6 and tryptophan (L-Tryptophane). Vitamin B5 supports the production of serotonin and acetylcholine, and some research suggests that in addition to its effect on improving memory and concentration, it may also be useful in treating anxiety and depression. Vitamin B6 is also essential for serotonin synthesis. There is also a strong association between depression and folic acid deficiency.
What Does Tryptophan (L-Tryptophan) Do In The Body?
Tryptophan is an essential amino acid that the body uses to make various proteins.
Such as:
- Serotonin - the main regulatory neurotransmitter
- Melatonin - the key to initiating and maintaining sleep
- Niacin - a key B vitamin
Can we use tryptophan and CBD to relieve this anxiety?
Research shows that CBD helps balance the serotonin pathway.
Seven days of treatment with CBD reduced anxiety-like behavior and normalized 5-HT activity.
5-HT = serotonin.
We conclude that non-psychotropic CBD in particular may be useful in the treatment of mood disorders in patients with inflammatory disease, as this cannabinoid appears to be safe and has a stronger effect on tryptophan degradation induced by CBD activation than THC.
So, what does L-tryptophan do?
Most importantly, it helps your brain produce serotonin, nature’s happy chemical! (An important part of healthy, happy brain chemistry!) As a result, many people use L-tryptophan for anxiety and depression and to improve their sleep quality.
And since cannabidiol also works with the body to improve mood and sleep, it’s truly a blend made in heaven!
