Does Your Food Influence Your Mood?

Your food impacts your mood, and your mood impacts your food. It's a cycle.

What is serotonin? Serotonin is a naturally occurring chemical  which controls your emotions, digestion and how well you sleep. From an emotional perspective, it’s an important hormone which can help stabilize our mood, happiness and overall well-being. Hence why serotonin is often called the ‘happy hormone’.
