Information on How to Improve Your Mood with Food

For the most part, people have been trained to think that “comfort” foods are bad for the body and need to be avoided. Often, if your comfort food is a high sugar food or another junk food, this holds true. At times, comfort foods can be very healthy and good for us to eat. A number of foods honestly do boost your mood when you consume them. When you are feeling a little down and are needing an emotional pick-me-up, try some of these.

Eggs, believe it or not, can be actually wonderful at fighting back depression. Just be sure that you do not toss the egg yolk. The yolk is the most important part of the egg in terms of helping elevate your mood. Eggs, particularly the egg yolks, are rich in B vitamins. These B vitamins are fantastic for helping to elevate your mood. This is because the B vitamins help your neural transmitters–the parts of your brain that control your mood–run better. Try to eat an egg and feel better!

Put together a trail mixfrom different seeds and nuts. Almonds, cashews, peanuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, etcetera are all helpful for elevating your mood. This is because these foods are high in magnesium, which helps to raise your production of serotonin. Serotonin is a feel-good substance that directs the brain how to feel at any given moment. The more of this chemical in your brain, the better you’ll feel. Nuts, on top of bettering your mood, can be a super protein source.

Cold water fish are good if you wish to be in a better mood. Wild salmon, herring, mackerel, trout, and tuna are all full of omega-3 fats and DHA. These are two things that actually help the grey matter in your brain function a lot better. It’s true: consuming a tuna fish sandwich can earnestly elevate your mood.

Grains can be good for overcoming a bad mood. Quinoa, millet, teff and barley are all truly great for helping boost your happiness levels. These grains can help you feel full for longer too, which is a mood improver. Feeling hungry can truly bring you down! These grains can help your mood elevate as it’s not at all difficult for your body to digest them. You digest these foods quicker than other foods which can help boost your blood sugar levels, which, in turn, helps make you feel better, mood wise.

Green tea is truly excellent for your mood. You were just waiting to read that here, weren’t you? Green tea is rich in a certain amino acid called L-theanine. Studies prove that this specific amino acid can essentially stimulate brain waves. This helps raise your mental focus while calming the rest of your body. You were already aware that that green tea helps you be better. Now you know that green tea can elevate your mood also!
