Turn to Food to Boost Your Mood
In general, people have been trained to think that “comfort” foods are not good for the body and must be avoided. However, if your comfort food is candy or junk food this is true. Otherwise, comfort foods could be really nourishing and good for you. There are some foods that, when you consume them, could boost your mood. If you seem to be a little bit down and you’re needing an emotional pick me up, try several of these.
Eggs, believe it or not, can be truly terrific at fighting back depression. Just be sure that you don’t throw away the egg yolk. The egg yolk is the part of the egg that is the most important in terms of helping raise your mood. Eggs, the yolk in particular, are rich in B vitamins. B vitamins can really help you boost your mood. This is because the B vitamins increase the function of your brain’s neural transmitters (the parts of the brain that affect how you feel). Eat an egg and feel a lot better!
Put together a trail mix from seeds and/or nuts. Your mood can be improved by eating peanuts, almonds, cashews, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, etcetera. This is because seeds and nuts have a lot of magnesium which increases your brain’s serotonin levels. Serotonin is called the “feel good” substance that our body produces and it tells your brain how you should be feeling at all times. The higher your levels of serotonin, the happier you are going to feel. Nuts, in addition to elevating your mood, can be a super source of protein.
Cold water fish are excellent for eating if you wish to beat back depression. Tuna, trout, mackerel, herring and wild salmon are all high in omega-3 fats and DHA. These are two things that improve the quality and the function of your brain’s grey matter. It’s true: consuming a tuna fish sandwich can really help you fight depression.
Grains can be good for overcoming a terrible mood. Quinoa, millet, teff and barley are all really great for helping raise your happiness levels. These foods fill you up better and that can help improve your moods too. Feeling famished can be terrible! These grains can elevate your mood because it’s easy for your body to digest them. These foods are easier to digest than others which helps jumpstart a rise in your sugar levels which in turn kicks up your mood to a happier place.
Green tea is fantastic for moods. You were sure green tea had to be included in this article, right? Green tea is rich in an amino acid referred to as L-theanine. Studies have shown that this amino acid basically induces brain waves. This will better your brain’s concentration while simultaneously relaxing the rest of your body. You probably already knew how easy it is to get healthy when you drink green tea. And now you know green tea can help improve your mood too!
So you see, you don’t need to eat all that junk food when you wish to feel better! Try several of these instead!
