Griffonia Simplicifolia, un remède naturel contre la dépression
La présence de L5-HTP
dans les graines de la Griffonia est extrêmement précieuse car ce
principe actif se transforme dans l’organisme en sérotonine. La
sérotonine, appelée aussi l’hormone du bonheur, est un neurotransmetteur
qui joue un rôle essentiel dans le cerveau en régulant notamment les
cycles circadiens (veille et sommeil, métabolisme, circulation sanguine
et taux de cortisol). La sérotonine possède également des
propriétés essentielles pour lutter contre la dépression, le stress, les
phobies et les troubles de l’humeur.

The study found that Griffonia can ease motion sickness. People who suffer from motion sickness can feel nausea, headache, fatigue, vertigo
and dizziness when moving in cars, trains, planes or boats. They may
experience cold sweats and even vomiting. It can make travel very
difficult. Motion sickness is the result of conflicting information
coming in through the inner ear and the eyes and the nerves in the
body’s extremities.
