Hi Friend,   This month, we'll dive into how L-tryptophan and 5-HTP spark joy in your brain, a new groundbreaking Yale study, and magnesium's effect on the brain. Plus, do we have taste buds in our brain? Let's get into it. Have you ever wondered how your brain influences your mood? Serotonin, known as the feel-good neurotransmitter, plays a crucial role in how you feel throughout the day.   Two key compounds are responsible for serotonin production in the brain:    1. L-Tryptophan, the slow-and-steady amino acid you get from food. 2. 5-HTP, the middle step, is fast-tracked for serotonin production.   This process looks something like this: So, which should you supplement? That depends. This month's guide breaks it down so you can make the choice that fits your chemistry.   [Read: L-Tryptophan vs. 5-HTP →] Until now, scientists believed babies couldn't store long-term memories. The hippocampus, after all, was still developing. But a new study from Yale suggests otherwise. Researchers found signs of episodic memory encoding in babies as young as four months. Translation? Your brain may have been recording memories all along. You just can't access them. Not yet, at least. We often call it the "sleep mineral." But magnesium does much more. It helps maintain the stability of your brain's synapses—the tiny bridges that allow neurons to communicate.* That means sharper memory. Smoother cognition. More reliable focus.* Magnesium isn't a bonus. It's a baseline. Take a look at the power of magnesium here. BREAKING HEALTH NEWS & FUN FACTS Your brain burns more than its share. 2% of your body weight. 20% of your energy. That's why food quality matters more than calories ever will. Taste buds... in your brain? Kind of. Receptors for sweetness and umami don't just live on your tongue; they show up in your brain, too. No, they don't help you "taste" thoughts. But they do help your brain track energy, regulate appetite, and maybe... adjust mood. These receptors exist in many organs, like your heart, too.   Your Brain's Energy Consumption  Even though it makes up only about 2% of your body weight, your brain consumes around 20% of your daily energy. This is mostly in the form of glucose. That's why eating brain-healthy foods (like omega-3s and antioxidants) helps so much.*
