    The Sun’s Going Down on Your Mood

    The end-of-summer blues are real. When the sun starts fading from view earlier and fun summer activities are finished, your mood responds accordingly. 

    If you’re experiencing a low mood at the end of summer while transitioning to fall, you’re not alone. Changes in daylight hours and weather can make you feel tired, sluggish, and sad. 

    You might also feel less connected to your friends and family. Work and school pick back up in the fall, leaving less time for social gatherings. 

    If stress, sadness, and end-of-summer blues are getting in your way this fall, you might need more serotonin. 

    Learn more about how serotonin affects your daily mood, functioning, sleep, and appetite. 

    All About Serotonin: What It Does for Your Body and Brain

    Serotonin is a neurotransmitter, which is a chemical messenger that controls brain activity. It helps send signals between neurons and other cells in your body. 

    When it comes to your mood, serotonin regulates feelings of happiness, emotional stability, and calmness. In other words, serotonin is a feel-good chemical. 

    Lots of things can interfere with your brain’s serotonin production. Changes in seasonal daylight, sleep schedules, and diet can influence your serotonin levels. 

    Without enough serotonin, you might feel:

    • Stressed
    • Less stable
    • Less productive
    • Tired
    • Restless 
    • Irritable
    • Anxious
    • Sad
    • Unhappy

    If these things ring true, especially toward the end of summer, serotonin deficiency might be your problem. 

    Serotonin also controls your appetite by affecting your mental stress levels. When you’re overwhelmed, you’re more likely to snack more often on unhealthy foods. 

    This is a natural biological stress response. Throughout history, when humans faced periods of famine, stress-eating was a way to prevent starvation. 

    Now that processed, calorie-dense foods are available everywhere, humans don’t need to stress-eat. However, it’s still hardwired into your brain and body to do this. 

    That’s where our serotonin supplement comes in. PureBalance™ Serotonin can help you regain control over your mood, relaxation, and appetite to thrive this fall.* 

    PureBalance™ Serotonin: Increase Your Levels for Better Mood*

    As you face the end-of-summer blues, PureBalance™ Serotonin is here to help. This supplement replenishes your brain’s serotonin levels using innovative ingredients.* 

    PureBalance™ Serotonin contains 5-HTP, the chemical building block used to produce serotonin in your brain. 

    We’ve also included other beneficial ingredients, like calming ashwagandha and vitamin D for better sleep and immunity.* 

    Looking at each ingredient in depth can give you a better understanding of how PureBalance™ Serotonin supports your mood and regulates your appetite.*

    5-HTP: Serotonin’s Building Block

    Unlike whole serotonin molecules, 5-HTP can cross the blood-brain barrier to effectively increase your brain’s serotonin levels.* 

    We’ve included 5-HTP in PureBalance™ Serotonin to ensure your brain and body can actually use the serotonin our supplement produces.

    Venetron®: Preserves Serotonin Molecules*

    The last thing you want is for important serotonin molecules to be broken down by your body after they’re produced. Venetron® helps prevent this. 

    Venetron® comes from the Rafuma leaf, and this patented herbal extract keeps your serotonin levels stable by decreasing the breakdown of these molecules.* 

    Sensoril® Ashwagandha: Buffers Physical Stress*

    Ashwagandha is an adaptogen, a plant-based compound that regulates your body’s physical stress levels.* 

    Sensoril® ashwagandha has been shown to reduce cortisol levels.* Cortisol is the fight-or-flight hormone responsible for stress-eating and poor sleep. 

    We’ve incorporated Sensoril® ashwagandha to buffer against the physical effects of stress in your body, helping you achieve better sleep and appetite control.* 

    L-Theanine: Fast-Acting Relaxation*

    L-theanine is an amino acid that’s naturally found in tea. It has a surprising positive effect on your mood since it promotes brain waves that signal relaxation.* 

    Alpha brain waves keep you in a state of “relaxed alertness.” This means you’re awake, but your body and mind are calm. 

    The L-theanine in PureBalance™ Serotonin can reduce feelings of stress in one hour or less, making it a fast-acting beneficial compound for sleep and mood support.* 

    Vitamin D3: Mood and Immunity Support*

    Vitamin D is produced when sunlight hits your skin. However, outside of the summer months, there isn’t much sunshine to go around.

    We’ve supplemented the PureBalance™ Serotonin formula with vitamin D3 to increase your levels. D3 is absorbed more easily than other forms of vitamin D (like D2). 

    Vitamin D supports your immune system, helping you fight off health threats with ease. 

    This vitamin also promotes feelings of happiness and serenity, which is just what you need to fight the end-of-summer blues.

    Using Self-Care to Fight End-of-Summer Mood Changes

    It’s important to care for your mind and body as you transition into fall. Self-care is essential for regulating your mood and stress levels. 

    Some popular acts of self-care include:

    • Writing down your feelings
    • Talking to a trusted friend or family member
    • Going for a walk or run outside
    • Getting 10-15 minutes of sun exposure every day 
    • Reading a book
    • Listening to music
    • Eating a nutritious and delicious snack
    • Taking a warm bath
    • Lighting candles 
    • Meditating 

    Always remember — these mood changes are only temporary. With the help of PureBalance™ Serotonin, you can get through them.
