White Good Carbs Soup

Unprocessed good carbs will improve your mood and sleep.

They increase a protein called tryptophan in your brain, a building block for serotonin and melatonin.

Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that controls sleep as well as mental well-being. Melatonin is a hormone that promotes a regular sleep-wake cycle.

White good carbs soup is so delicious and provides your body with good nutrition that, in a healthy gut, is well-absorbed, promoting the production of feel-good neurotransmitters in the gut.
