Nuts elevate Serotonin
Serotonin is an important neurotransmitter. It has the ability to reduce the sensation of hunger and also has the ability to elevate the mood. Nuts are packed with several nutrients including vitamins and minerals. They also possess antioxidants and fiber both of which are useful for protecting against cardiovascular disease. Nuts also possess the important fatty acids belonging to the class of omega3-fatty acids. These fatty acids also have the ability to protect against several diseases. It has now been shown that nuts are capable of boosting the serotonin levels in the body. This can suppress the appetite and enables the weight to be kept under check.
