In this easy-to-understand 2-minute video, I explain the role of serotonin in the brain and gut and its role in different neurological diseases (e.g. depression, serotonin syndrome) as well as how serotonin receptors can be a target for the treatment of nausea and vomiting (Serotonin receptor antagonists, 5HT3 receptor antagonist) The neurotransmitter serotonin is considered to be a natural mood stabilizer and low levels of it are associated with depression. High levels on the other hand may lead to 'serotonine syndrome'.
