Happiness hormone: 95% of serotonin is in the gut
01 Aug 2016, 23:00 •
Serotonin is often called the "happiness hormone", it is produced in organismal moments of ecstasy, its level rises during the euphoria and decreases during the depression. But along with the most important task is to give us a good mood, it performs in the body has a lot of functions.
WHAT IS SEROTONIN?
Serotonin plays the role of a chemical transmitter impulses between nerve cells. Although this substance is produced in the brain, where it performs its primary function, approximately 95% of serotonin is synthesized in the gastrointestinal tract and in platelets. In the body constantly circulates up to 10 mg of serotonin.
Serotonin relates to biogenic amines, metabolism similar to the metabolism of catecholamines. A neurotransmitter and hormone involved in the regulation of memory, sleep, behavioral and emotional reactions, blood pressure monitoring, thermoregulation, and food reactions. Formed by dopamine and serotonin neurons, epiphysis, and enterochromaffin cells of the gastrointestinal tract.
95% of the serotonin in the human body is localized in the intestine, is a major source of blood serotonin.
In the blood it is found predominantly in platelets that capture the serotonin from plasma.
HOW IS THE SEROTONIN IN THE BRAIN?
It is known that serotonin levels through the roof in moments of happiness and falls during the depression. 5-10% of serotonin is synthesized by the pineal gland from the essential amino acid tryptophan. For its production is absolutely necessary sunlight, which is why on Sunny days our mood on top. The same process may explain the well-known winter depression.
WHAT ROLE SEROTONIN PLAYS IN OUR HEALTH?
Serotonin helps transmit information from one brain area to another. In addition, it affects a lot psychological and other processes in the body. From 80-90 billion cells in the brain serotonin has a direct or indirect impact on most of them. It affects the cells that are responsible for mood, sexual desire and function, appetite, sleep, memory and learning ability, temperature and some aspects of social behavior.
It is proved that the decrease of serotonin increases the sensitivity of the pain system of the body, that is, even the weakest comments irritation severe pain.
Serotonin can also affect the functioning of the cardiovascular, endocrine systems and muscle function.
Studies have shown that serotonin may play a role in the formation of breast milk, and its deficiency may be the cause of sudden death in infants during sleep.
Serotonin normalizes blood clotting; patients with bleeding tendency the amount of serotonin is reduced; the introduction of serotoninergicescoy the reduction of bleeding
stimulates the smooth muscles of blood vessels, respiratory tract, intestine; increases peristalsis of the intestine, reduce the daily amount of urine, narrowing of the bronchioles (branching bronchi). Lack of serotonin can cause intestinal obstruction.
An excess of the hormone serotonin in the regulatory structures of the brain depressing the functions of the reproductive system.
Serotonin is involved in the pathogenesis of diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, in particular, carcinoid syndrome and irritable bowel syndrome. Determination of the concentration of serotonin in blood in clinical practice used primarily in the diagnosis of carcinoid tumors of the abdominal cavity (the test is positive in 45% of cases of carcinoid of the rectum). The study of blood serotonin it is advisable to use in combination with the determination of the excretion of the serotonin metabolite (5-HIAA) in the urine.
WHAT IS THE CONNECTION BETWEEN SEROTONIN AND DEPRESSION?
A person's mood depends largely on the amount of serotonin in the body. Of the serotonin produced by the brain, but however, quite a large part of it is produced by the intestines.
How to protect the body from oxidation
It is possible that a deficit of serotonin in the intestines and determines the development of depression. And the lack of it in the brain - only a consequence, an accompanying symptom.
Moreover, this phenomenon may explain the side effect from the use of the most common remedies for the treatment of depression. It is often used antidepressants (inhibitors of serotonin reuptake) and operate on the intestines, causing nausea and digestive disorders.
A shortage of serotonin increases the pain threshold of sensitivity, causes impaired intestinal motility (IBS, constipation and diarrhea), secretion of stomach and duodenum (chronic gastritis and ulcers). The lack serotina affects the metabolism of beneficial microflora of the colon, inhibiting it.
In addition of intestinal Dysbiosis, a lack of serotonin in the body can be, and all other diseases of the digestive system, leading to poor assimilation of food needed by the body substances, such as tryptophan.
Probably the root cause of the low number of brain cells responsible for serotonin production and the lack of receptors able to receive serotonin produced. Or blame deficiency of tryptophan, an essential amino acid that makes up serotonin. If there is at least one of these problems, there is a greater likelihood of depression and obsessive-compulsive neurological disorders: anxiety, panic and bouts of unreasoning anger.
At the same time, while certainly not known, the deficiency of serotonin causes depression or depression causes serotonin levels to drop.
WHAT IS THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN SEROTONIN AND OBESITY?
However, in addition there are some causes which do linked to depression and obesity.
The deposition of fat predominantly in the abdomen, caused by the action of cortisol, whose level is elevated in chronic stress and depressive disorders.
The adrenal glands — the source of vitality
People whose depression was diagnosed clinically, much faster gaining volume at the waist than is healthy. Moreover, depressed patients are much more difficult to follow a diet. There is a correlation between the release of insulin and secretion of serotonin ( a neurotransmitter responsible for mood).
When we eat something, the sugar trapped in the blood, causes the release of insulin. Insulin puts the glucose inside the cell and triggers a series of processes that result in the release of serotonin.
Intake of carbs (no matter simple or complex) automatically leads to "release" the pancreas of the hormone insulin. The task of this hormone is to withdraw from the blood the excess sugar (glucose).
If not insulin, the blood after a meal would quickly become as thick as molasses. Crucially, along the way, insulin "picks up" from the blood of all the essential amino acids and sends them to the muscles. (No accident that the jocks consider insulin the second doping after the steroids!) But here is a problem: the only amino acid that does not respond to the insulin - tryptophan.
Tryptophan is left in blood, sneaking into the brain, and this increases serotonin levels.
Tryptophan is contained in any rich in animal proteins (protein) food. But, the consumption of protein foods, however, not affected by the increase in the content of serotonin in the brain.
Serotonin gives a feeling of fullness.
If serotonin is small, it requires increasingly greater amounts of insulin, so more sugar. On the other hand, you can use sweets or any foods with carbohydrates to improve mood. The more sweet, the more the release of serotonin. This property is to improve your mood sweets used subconsciously. I want chocolate after stress? During PMS? In winter, during short winter days? Quit Smoking and stalling for dessert? ( nicotine also causes the release of serotonin, so its people replace the sweets). A nice way to cheer yourself up. However, this mood elevation is given expensive. All calories eaten for the serotonin recharge moving into the fatty tissue. And cortisol pushes them in the waist area and abdomen.
Soda and bath: simple and effective cure
We are, in fact, only 10% people and the rest of the germs
They inhabit our skin, live in the nasopharynx, throughout the intestine. For example, in the intestine contains almost 2 kg of bacteria. Of course, they are smaller than human cells 10-100 times, but they strongly influence our lives.
Did you know that germs like to chat? Yes, they talk, but only in their own language.
We live in a world of bacteria, and they affect us more than we think.
Microbiota regulates all the processes in our body. Microorganisms are involved in many types of metabolism, synthesize necessary substances, such as vitamin B12, a nutrient aminophylline, including serotonin - the hormone of joy.
In the gut serotonin contains 95%, and in the head - only 5 %. Here is your answer. Serotonin plays an important role in the regulation of motility and secretion in the gastrointestinal tract, increasing its peristalsis and secretory activity. In addition, serotonin plays the role of a growth factor for some types of symbiotic micro-organisms, enhances bacterial metabolism in the colon. The bacteria of the large intestine also make some contribution to the secretion of serotonin by the intestine, since many species of symbiotic bacteria possess the ability decarbauxilirovanie tryptophan. When Dysbiosis and other diseases of the colon production of serotonin by the intestine is significantly reduced.
It turned out that the rough components of plant foods we need, and is vital. This "ballast" to protect us from many adverse factors and serves as "food" for beneficial gut microflora.
