Use Food to Improve Your Mood

A lot of us think that comfort foods are bad for us and that we have to keep away from them. At times, if the comfort food is a high sugar food or some other junk food, this is true. At times, comfort foods can be utterly nutritious and good for us to consume. There are several foods that, when you eat them, can boost your mood. When you are feeling a little down and are needing an emotional pick-me-up, test out a couple of these.

Eggs, believe it or not, are terrific for helping you battle depression. You need to see to it, however, that what you make includes the yolk. The egg yolk is the most important part of the egg iwhen it comes to helping elevate your mood. Eggs, the yolks especially, are rich in B vitamins. B vitamins can genuinely help you raise your mood. This is because they help in bettering the function of your neural transmitters, the parts of your brain that dictate your mood. Consume an egg and be happy!

Put together a trail mix from seeds and/or nuts. Almonds, cashews, peanuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, and so on are all great for improving your mood. This is because seeds and nuts have a lot of magnesium which increases your brain’s serotonin levels. Serotonin is the “feel good” chemical that dictates to your brain how you feel at all times. The more serotonin in your brain, the happier you’ll feel. Not only that but nuts, in particular, are a terrific source of protein.

Cold water fish are great if you would like to feel happier. Wild salmon, herring, mackerel, trout, and tuna are all high in omega-3 fatty acids and DHA. These are two substances that promote the quality and function of the grey matter in your brain. It’s true: consuming a tuna fish sandwich can seriously raise your mood.

Grains can be excellent for driving away a terrible mood. Quinoa, millet, teff and barley are all really great for helping raise your happiness levels. These grains fill you up better and that can help you with your moods too. Feeling starved can be awful! These grains can elevate your mood because it’s not at all hard for your body to digest them. These foods are easier to digest than others which helps promote a rise in your sugar levels which in turn takes your mood to a happier place.

Your mood can actually be helped by green tea. You were simply expecting to read that here, weren’t you? Green tea has a lot of an amino acid called L-theanine. Research has proven that this amino acid promotes the production of brain waves. This helps raise your mental acuity while calming the rest of your body. You knew green tea could help you become healthier. Now you know that applies to your mood too!

Now you realize that junk food isn’t necessarily what you should eat when you want to help your moods get better. Try a couple of of these hints instead.
