The body is able to manufacture serotonin from the amino acid L-Tryptophan, which is found in certain foods. Many people who reach for ice cream, sweets and pastries when they feel stressed or depressed are instinctively attempting to increase their uptake of L-Tryptophan to elevate their serotonin levels and improve their mood. Unfortunately, it takes great quantities of these "comfort foods" (with their unhelpful fat, sugar and calories) to significantly affect serotonin levels. Taking L-Tryptophan in the form of health supplements from our smartshop instead, can not only quickly improve your mood; it can even help control your appetite.
