Serotonin levels help shape your mood, sleep, and overall health. Even though serotonin is a brain chemical, most of it is produced in the gut, creating a powerful link between digestive health and mental well-being. When serotonin levels drift, you might notice changes in mood, energy, sleep quality, appetite, and gut comfort. To support balanced serotonin levels, you can start with simple daily habits: maintain a regular sleep-wake schedule and get natural light during the day to stabilize circadian rhythms; aim for regular physical activity; choose meals that include tryptophan-rich foods (like eggs, dairy, tofu, turkey, seeds) paired with complex carbohydrates. A gut-friendly diet—high in fiber, fermented foods, and polyphenols—also helps nurture the bacteria that influence serotonin-related pathways. Managing stress and staying hydrated round out the practical steps. For a deeper, personalized read on how your gut health may be shaping serotonin levels, a data-driven gut health platform can be helpful.
