Introducing my mom! (though no, she's not likely to become a regular in these comics).
Yesterday I was venting about stress, and my mom decides that the solution to all of lifes problems is a banana! Oddly enough though, I did a little research and apparently bananas can act as mood enhancers or mild sedatives. The reason being, bananas contain tryptophan. Tryptophan helps the body to produce serotonin - which has a calming effect on the brain (creates a stable mood) and acts as a mild sedative.
