Biogenic amine

A biogenic amine is a type of chemical that your body makes naturally. Think of it like a special type of building block that helps your body do different things. Biogenic amines can affect your mood, appetite, and even your sleep. Some of the biogenic amines you might have heard of are serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine.
Imagine your body like a big factory and biogenic amines are like little workers inside. These little workers have important jobs like helping you feel happy, making you hungry, and telling your body when it's time to sleep. Just like how different workers in a factory have different jobs, different biogenic amines have different jobs too!
