Mood

Supplements studied for mood.

Overview

Vitamin D is possibly effective for mood with medium-strength ratings, though study details are limited in the current summary. GABA does not appear to reliably improve mood; some small studies suggest temporary changes during stressful tasks but evidence is too weak for a dependable benefit.

Inulin-type fructans improved stress-induced mood states and altered gut microbial composition in one randomized trial. Panax Ginseng and Reishi have limited or insufficient evidence. The heatmap and evidence reviews below compare these supplements.
