Have you ever feel that sometimes you suddenly feel depressed and lonely that you don’t know why? In women it is correlated with hormones. As you can observe that our mood is like a roller coaster? It may somehow due to the hormonal changes we have every month.
Need to boost your mood? Avocados contain an amino acid called tryptophan, known to be a mood lifter. Tryptophan is an amino acid occurring naturally in food. In the brain, it is converted to 5-hydroxy-tryptophan (5-HTP), which, in turn, is converted to serotonin. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter essential to regulating appetite, sleep, mood and pain levels.
