Eating foods that contain the essential amino acid known as tryptophan can help the body to produce more serotonin.* Serotonin is a chemical found in the brain, blood, intestines, and connective tissues of the human body. It causes blood vessels to contract, helps transmit information across the nervous system, and has a role in brain function. **Serotonin is essential for overall health and wellbeing, and people often associate it with positive mood.**

Reduced levels of serotonin in the brain may be a cause of memory problems and low mood. Also, low serotonin levels are more likely to affect a person negatively if they have had depression before.
