Bananas are one of the most common fruits that we should consume daily. But are you aware that eating bananas are not only beneficial to our body but as well as to our moods?  

Bananas can help us improve our mood. Bananas contain the amino acid called tryptophan together with vitamins A, B6, C, fiber, potassium, phosphorus, iron, and carbohydrate. Tryptophan is an amino acid that helps produces Niacin

Niacin is a part of our metabolism process which makes it essential in producing the neurotransmitter called Serotonin. Serotonin is a hormone that acts as a mood stabilizer, which also stabilizes our emotions and feelings. This hormone makes our brain cells and other nervous system cells communicate effectively with each other allowing a harmonious functionality in our well-being. 

Serotonin is also responsible for helping us get a night of better sleep, eating, as well as digestion. That is why several antidepressant medications are designed to increase the levels of serotonin in our brains. People who are suffering from depression have stated that they feel less depressed after eating bananas.

Some research also indicates that bananas play an indirect part by storing up the amount of serotonin the brain is capable of producing. Bananas are also rich in different minerals and nutrients that our body needs more than the serotonin hormones such as Vitamin B6. 

Bananas have a huge impact and contribution to lifting your mood, and your well-being. Aside from that, it is also a very nutritious fruit that we should eat often. 

Given the above-mentioned vitamins that it contains, bananas are also low in calories and contain no virtual fat, which makes them a perfect part of your healthy diet. They make a great pre-workout snack too!
