Tryptophan
Foods that are high in protein also contain the essential amino acid tryptophan. This amino acid can increase serotonin levels in the brain. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that can have a calming effect and helps to play an active role in sleep. This explains why you want to crash on the couch after your Thanksgiving feast. Poultry such as turkey are high in tryptophan.
色氨酸
蛋白质含量高的食物中同样也包含着必需氨基酸色氨酸。色氨酸会提高大脑中血清素的水平。血清素是一种神经传递素,有镇定效果,在睡眠中起着重要作用。这就解释了为什么感恩节大餐后你总是想一头躺在沙发上。像火鸡这样的禽类的肉中色氨酸含量非常高。
Another possible benefit of tryptophan is that it can help people who are in pain. A Temple University study showed that patients who were suffering from chronic facial pain experienced significant pain relief when treated with tryptophan.
色氨酸的另一个益处是它可以帮助人们缓解病痛。天普大学的一项研究表明经受慢性面部疼痛的人在接受色氨酸治疗后症状明显减轻。
Folic Acid
Foods that are rich in folic acid such as fruits, vegetables, seeds and nuts have been known to help combat depression. According to the University of Minnesota, many people who suffer from depression have low levels of folic acid in the body. Low levels of folic acid can cause serotonin levels in the brain to drop.
