Serotonin production and optimizing brain health
Meat and some plants contain the necessary components to produce serotonin, which helps optimize brain function and reduce inflammation. Vitamin D, omega-3s, and exercise also contribute to serotonin production. During exercise, muscles absorb branch chain amino acids, making it easier for tryptophan to enter the brain and increase serotonin levels. This flood of serotonin during intense workouts can lead to fatigue.
