Try Using Food to Boost Your Mood
In general, people have been conditioned to think that “comfort” foods are not good for the body and should be avoided. Often, if your comfort food is a high sugar food or some other junk food, this holds true. At times, comfort foods can be very nutritious and good for us to consume. There are some foods that, when you consume them, may better your mood. If you feel a little bit down and need a happiness pick me up, try a few of these.
Eggs, you may be surprised to discover, are fantastic at combating depression. Just be sure that you do not throw out the egg yolk. The yolk is the most essential part of the egg in terms of helping you cheer up. Eggs, the egg yolks particularly, are rich in B vitamins. B vitamins can be fantastic for lifting up your mood. This is because they help in improving the function of your neural transmitters, the parts of your brain that dictate your mood. Try eating some eggs to jolly up!
Make a trail mix from seeds and/or nuts. Almonds, cashews, peanuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, and so on are all good for improving your mood. This is because seeds and nuts have plenty of magnesium which raises your brain’s serotonin levels. Serotonin is known as the “feel good” substance that our body produces and it tells your brain how you should be feeling all the time. The more serotonin in your brain, the more pleasant you’ll feel. Not only that, nuts, specifically, are a fantastic protein source.
If you want to beat depression, try eating some cold water fish. Wild salmon, herring, mackerel, trout, and tuna are all rich in omega-3 fats and DHA. These are two things that promote the quality and the function of your brain’s gray matter. It’s true: chomping on a tuna fish sandwich can really help you fight back depression.
Some grains are really excellent for fighting off bad moods. Quinoa, barley, millet, etc are great at helping you feel better. They help you feel full too which can truly help to improve your mood. It’s easy to feel a little bit off when you feel hungry! The reason these grains are so great for your mood is that they are not difficult to digest. You digest them quicker than other things which can help increase your blood sugar levels, which, in turn, helps make you feel better, mood wise.
