Try Using Food to Boost Your Mood
Many of us have been conditioned to believe that comfort foods are terrible and should be avoided. Sometimes, if the comfort food is a sugary food or some other junk food, this is very true. Otherwise, comfort foods can be extremely nutritious and good for you. Some foods actually do boost your mood when you consume them. If you are feeling a little bit down and you need a happiness pick me up, try a couple of these.
Eggs, you might be surprised to learn, are wonderful at combating depression. Just make sure that you don’t throw away the egg yolk. When you wish to cheer yourself up, the yolk is the most essential part of the egg. Eggs, the egg yolk in particular, are rich in B vitamins. B vitamins can really help you elevate your mood. This is because these vitamins improve the function of your brain’s neural transmitters (the parts of the brain that dictate how you feel). Try eating some eggs to feel better!
Make a few trail mix of nuts or seeds. Your mood can be raised by eating peanuts, almonds, cashews, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, and other types of nuts. This is because these foods are high in magnesium, which helps to increase serotonin levels. Serotonin is a feel-good chemical that dictates to the brain how to feel at any given time. The more of it in your brain, the better you’ll feel. Nuts, on top of raising your mood, can be a superb protein source.
Cold water fish are great for eating if you want to battle depression. Salmon, herring, tuna, mackerel, trout, etcetera, they’re all chock-full of omega-3s and DHA. These are two substances that promote the quality and function of the gray matter in your brain. It’s true: eating a tuna fish sandwich can greatly raise your mood.
It’s easy to drive away your bad mood when you consume grains. Quinoa, millet, teff and barley are all really wonderful for helping boost your happiness levels. They can help you feel full for longer also, which is a mood improver. Feeling starved can be awful! The reason these grains are so great for your mood is that they are easy to digest. You digest these grains more quickly than other foods which can help boost your blood sugar levels, which, in turn, helps make you feel better, mood wise.
Your mood could really be helped by green tea. You were sure it had to be mentioned in this article, right? Green tea is found to be rich in an amino acid called L-theanine. Research has proven that this amino acid stimulates the production of brain waves. This will better your brain’s concentration while at the same loosening up the rest of your body. You knew green tea could help you feel better. Now you know that applies to your mood too!
So you see, you don’t need to consume all that junk food when you are wanting to feel better! Try several of these instead!
