According to the National Youth Mental Health Study conducted by the Institute of Mental Health (IMH), a significant number of youths in Singapore have reported experiencing severe symptoms of depression, anxiety or stress.
Serotonin
Serotonin, one of our “happy hormones", helps to give you happiness, focus and calmness. Serotonin helps regulate digestive functions including bowel function and appetite. Low serotonin levels are associated with several mood, sleep and digestive problems.
Ways to Increase Serotonin Levels Naturally
- Exercising regularly
- Spending time in sun
- Reducing stress and relaxing
- Socializing with others
- Consuming foods rich in tryptophan
- Taking 5-HTP supplements
5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) is an amino acid that your body uses to produce serotonin. Intake of 5-HTP can not only increase serotonin levels but also boost melatonin production, which supports better sleep. Research has shown that 5-HTP supplements can improve sleep quality in Singaporean older adults, especially in individuals with disrupted sleep patterns, while also benefiting their gut health.
