Serotonin is found in certain nuts and fruits like bananas and food sources with high amounts in carbohydrates, such as sweets and breads.

Serotonin is synthesized in your body from the essential amino acid Tryptophan. Tryptophan is derived from protein sources in the diet. While serotonin is synthesized in the brain, most of the body's production of serotonin occurs in the gastrointestinal tract.
