Turn to Food to Improve Your Mood
For the most part, people have been trained to believe that “comfort” foods are bad for the body and have to be avoided. At times, if your 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. There are some foods that, when you consume them, could boost your mood. If you feel a little bit down and in need of an emotional pick me up, try several of these.
Eggs, would you believe, are fantastic for helping you battle depression. Just be sure that you do not toss the egg yolk. The egg yolk is the part of the egg that is the most important in terms of helping you cheer up. Eggs, the yolks especially, are loaded with B vitamins. B vitamins can truly help you raise your mood. This is because they help improve the function of your neural transmitters, the components of your brain that control your mood. Eat an egg and feel better!
Put together a trail mixfrom a variety of seeds and nuts. Peanuts, cashews, sunflower seeds, almonds, pumpkin seeds, etc are all great for helping to raise your mood. This is possible because these foods are rich in magnesium which increases serotonin production. Serotonin is a feel-good chemical that directs the brain how to feel at any given point in time. The more serotonin you have, the more pleasant you will feel. Nuts, in addition to elevating your mood, can be a superb source of protein.
Cold water fish are great for eating if you wish to beat back depression. Cold water fish such as tuna, trout and wild salmon are rich in DHA and omega-3s. DHA and omega-3s are two things that truly help the grey matter in your brain function a lot better. It’s true: eating a tuna fish sandwich can really help you overcome depression.
Grains can be wonderful for overcoming a terrible mood. Barley, millet, quinoa, etc are fantastic at helping you feel happier. They help you feel full as well which can really help to make your mood better. Feeling starved can be awful! The reason these grains are so great for your mood is that they are easy for your stomach to digest. These foods are easier to digest than others which helps jumpstart a rise in your blood glucose which in turn brings up your mood to a happier place.
Green tea is actually great for your mood. You just knew it had to be included in this article, right? Green tea is found to be packed full of an amino acid referred to as L-theanine. Studies show that this specific amino acid can essentially stimulate brain waves. This helps better your mental focus while having a relaxing effect on the rest of your body. You were already aware that green tea could help you become better. And now you are aware that it can help raise your mood also!
You can see, you don’t need junk food or foods that are not good for you so you can feel better! Try some of these instead!
