Information on How to Boost Your Mood with Food
Most of us have been taught to think that comfort foods are terrible and are to be avoided. Sometimes, if your comfort food is a sugary food or another junk food, this is very true. Other times, however, comfort foods can be completely healthy and it’s good for you to eat them. There are some foods that, when you eat them, may improve your mood. If you seem to feel a little bit down and you’re in need of a happiness pick me up, try a couple of these.
Eggs, believe it or not, are great for helping you fight depression. You must see to it, however, that what you make includes the egg yolk. The yolk is the part of the egg that matters most in terms of helping elevate your mood. Eggs, especially the yolks, are loaded with B vitamins. These B vitamins are wonderful for helping to raise your mood. This is because they help your neural transmitters–the parts of your brain that dictate your mood–function better. Consume an egg and feel happier!
Put together a trail mixout of various seeds and nuts. Almonds, cashews, peanuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, etc are all good for raising your mood. This is because these nuts are loaded with magnesium, which helps to raise serotonin levels. Serotonin is the “feel good” chemical substance that dictates to your brain how you feel day in and day out. The more of it in your brain, the more pleasant you’ll feel. Nuts, in addition to improving your mood, can be a super source of protein.
If you would like to beat depression, try eating some cold water fish. Herring, trout, tuna, wild salmon, and mackerel are all full of omega-3 fats and DHA. These are two substances that increase the quality and function of the grey matter in your brain. It’s true: eating a tuna fish sandwich can actually help you overcome depression.
Grains can be great for driving away a bad mood. Quinoa, barley, millet, etc are fantastic at helping you feel better. These foods fill you up better and that can help you with your moods also. Feeling hungry can actually bring you down! These grains can help your mood elevate as it’s not at all hard for your body to digest them. They are simpler to digest than other foods which helps raise your blood sugar levels and that, in turn, improves your mood.
Your mood can truly be helped by green tea. You knew it had to be mentioned in this article, right? Green tea has a lot of an amino acid known as L-theanine. Studies prove that this particular amino acid can essentially stimulate brain waves. This helps better your mental acuity while calming the rest of your body. You probably already knew it is not hard to become healthy when you consume green tea. Now you know that green tea can improve your mood as well!
So you see, you don’t need to stuff your face with junk food when you wish to feel better! Try several of these instead!
