Have you ever gotten on your own nerves. Boy I have. It’s no fun. I know that there are ways to improve your mood and help you have a better day. Check out my Natrol 5-HTP 5 ways to improve your mood below!

1. Exercise: When you work out you release endorphins and they simply put make you happy. So next time you feel a bad mood coming on go on and work out. You’ll be thankful you did.

2. Grab your 5-HTP. After using Natrol’s melatonin I’m very excited about Natrol 5-HTP. It is a stress reliever. It’s a natural mood enhancer and relieves anxiety, depression, and it’s used as an appetite suppressant. That’s what I need on occassion. I love natural products like this. It’s like a meltaway. You place it under your tongue and it melts in your mouth. It has a nice sweet flavor and after about 30 minutes I already notice that I am beginning to feel better.

More about 5-HTP:

5-Hydroxytryptophan (commonly called 5-HTP) is an amino acid that participates in the synthesis of serotonin, the body’s chemical messenger that plays a key role in enhancing mood and controlling appetite.

3. Stay away from caffeine and sugar when you’re trying to improve your mood. They will both improve it for a short period of time but then you can crash and then you’ll feel worse.

4. Have a protein filled snack. Enjoy something as simple as nuts, cheese or fruit. Something as simple as a piece of fruit and protein can improve your mood because you’re no longer hungry.

5. Reframe your thoughts. If you’re stuck thinking negatively try to think on the bright side. Think about all the positives that could come from your dilemma. Or just think of something that makes you happy and takes you away from the problem your facing.
