Hi Steemians,
Just wanted to share a little fact with you all that totally blew my mind.
A recent study showed that the active ingredient in turmeric, curcumin, was found to be as effective at treating depression as Prozac. Prozac is the highest prescribed anti depression in the USA.
Why is curcumin so effective:
Simply put, it helps our tummies produce tryptophan which is turned into serotonin or “the happy molecule”.
There is a reason we often refer to our tummies as the second brain and this is why. 75% of our serotonin is actually stored in our guts.
So guys start adding turmeric into your foods, it may just make you feel a little happier 😊
