SAMe (Mood)
SAMe, short for S-adenosylmethionine, is a naturally occurring compound in the body that plays a crucial role in the production of neurotransmitters, which are chemicals that help regulate mood. It is often used as a dietary supplement to support emotional well-being and may help alleviate symptoms of depression and anxiety.
Research suggests that SAMe may enhance the effectiveness of certain antidepressants and improve overall mood. It is believed to work by increasing levels of serotonin and dopamine, two key neurotransmitters involved in mood regulation. However, more studies are needed to fully understand its benefits and potential side effects.
