how to beat the winter blues
Tips for supporting serotonin naturally to feel bright year-round
what are the winter blues?
The “winter blues” describe a seasonal slump that many people feel during autumn and winter, often triggered by shorter days, darker evenings, and colder weather. Around 10% of the population experiences this dip [1], marked by winter tiredness and a tendency to withdraw.
mental health in winter: what changes?
Reduced daylight alters two key brain chemicals: serotonin, which regulates mood, and melatonin, which controls sleep [2]. Less sunlight influences both because daylight exposure supports serotonin release, and reduced light increases melatonin, causing winter tiredness [3]
how to beat the winter blues? opt for 5-HTP
5-HTP is a natural nutrient and the direct building block of serotonin, offering an efficient way to increase serotonin levels all year round. brain feed’s 100mg 5-HTP tablets contain 99% pure 5-HTP, making them the smallest, nutrient-dense option available.
