How to Elevate Your Mood with Food
Many of us have been trained to think that comfort foods are terrible and to be avoided. Sometimes, if your comfort food is candy or another junk food, this holds true. Otherwise, comfort foods could be super nutritious and good for you. Some foods honestly do raise your mood when you consume them. If you seem to be a little bit down and in need of an emotional pick me up, try a number of these.
Eggs, believe it or not, can be truly great at fighting back depression. Just make sure that you do not toss the egg yolk. The egg yolk is the most important part of the egg iwhen it comes to helping raise your mood. Eggs, especially the yolks, are full of B vitamins. B vitamins can genuinely help you boost your mood. This is because they help your neural transmitters–the parts of your brain that affect your mood–function better. Consume an egg and feel better!
Make some trail mix of nuts or seeds. Almonds, cashews, peanuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, etcetera are all great for raising your mood. This is because seeds and nuts have lots of magnesium which boosts your brain’s serotonin levels. Serotonin is the “feel good” chemical substance that dictates to your brain how you feel at all times. The more serotonin you have, the happier you are going to feel. Not only that, nuts, in particular, are a great protein food source.
Cold water fish are great if you wish to feel better. Salmon, herring, tuna fish, mackerel, trout, etcetera, they’re all loaded with omega-3 and DHA. Omega-3 fatty acids and DHA are two things that actually help the grey matter in your brain function a lot better. It’s true: eating a tuna fish sandwich can greatly raise your mood.
Grains can be good for overcoming a bad mood. Teff, barley, millet, quinoa, etc are all wonderful for helping you feel better. They help you feel full too which can actually help to improve your mood. Feeling starved can be terrible! The reason these grains elevate your mood is that they are not difficult for your stomach to digest. They are simpler to digest than other foods which helps bring up your blood sugar levels and that, in turn, raises your mood.
Your mood could actually be helped by green tea. You just knew green tea had to be included in this article, right? Green tea is found to be rich in an amino acid known as L-theanine. Studies show that this specific amino acid can essentially stimulate brain waves. This will better your brain’s concentration while also calming the rest of your body. You knew green tea could help you become healthier. Now you are aware that it can help raise your mood as well!
So you see, you don’t need to consume all that junk food when you are wanting to feel better! Test out these suggestions instead!
