Banana and Depression

BANANA (SMILE) – DEPRESSION

Cheer yourself up and put a smile on your face by eating a banana.

The popular fruit contains a protein called tryptophan.

Once it has been digested, tryptophan then gets converted in a chemical neurotransmitter called serotonin.

This is one of the most important mood-regulating chemicals in the brain and most anti-depressant
drugs work by adjusting levels of serotonin production.

Higher levels are associated with better moods..
