Serotonin: The Unsung Hero of Your Body and Mind
Serotonin: The Unsung Hero of Your Body and Mind
Serotonin is often called the “happy” chemical —but it’s much more than that. It’s a neurotransmitter and hormone that influences mood, sleep, appetite, digestion, memory, and even wound healing.
Why does a balanced serotonin level matter:
Too little serotonin can lead to depression, anxiety, insomnia, and digestive issues.
Too much serotonin can cause a dangerous condition called serotonin syndrome , with symptoms like confusion, high fever, and muscle rigidity.
The Mood - Gut (Serotonin - Probiotics) Connection
About 90% of serotonin is produced in your gut, not your brain! Gut microbes, especially probiotics, play a central role in stimulating serotonin synthesis by intestinal cells. A healthy gut with a healthy microbiome supports stable serotonin levels, while an imbalanced gut can disrupt mood and digestion. This is why gut health is increasingly linked to mental well-being.🔬
Innovation at AnaBio Technologie
We’re leveraging microencapsulation technology to protect probiotics, so they reach the gut alive and effective. This helps maintain a healthy microbiome—supporting serotonin balance naturally.
