Why is Serotonin so Important?
Serotonin is a naturally occurring neurotransmitter (chemical
messenger) in the brain. This neurotransmitter has been the
subject of numerous magazine articles, as well as television
news health segments. Serotonin is commonly known as
"the mood chemical". Serotonin imbalance and deficiency
have been implicated in a number of clinical disorders
including depression, premenstrual syndrome, migraine
headaches, eating disorders, fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue
syndrome. Although present in minute amounts in the
human body, serotonin plays an incredibly important role in
so many vital physical and emotional functions.
Serotonin is made inside the body from the amino acid,
tryptophan. This amino acid is found in various food
sources, and high amounts are found in carbohydrates,
chocolate and other sweets. When a person ingests
chocolate, the body converts tryptophan, the building block
into serotonin.
As a real life example, during a woman’s cycle, serotonin
deficiency may occur. Although many women do suffer from
serotonin deficiency, men are not precluded from this
condition. When this happens, the body will send out a
signal that it needs more serotonin in the form of a food
craving. Therefore, when the craving occurs, this will
motivate the person subconsciously to eat chocolate or
other sweets that can supply the tryptophan. The affected
person does not realize that the body is serotonin deficient;
they only know they really want that handful of Hershey
Kisses®. Of course, the aftermath of this ingestion is the
weight gain, adverse cholesterol effects and other
detrimental effects from excessive eating of carbohydrates.
