Foods That Make Your Mood Better
Most of us believe that comfort foods are not good for us and that we must avoid them. Often, if your comfort food is candy or another junk food, this is very true. Otherwise, comfort foods may be extremely nourishing and good for you. There are a number of foods that really can raise your moods when you eat them. When you are feeling a little down and are in need of an emotional pick-me-up, test out some of these.
Eggs, believe it or not, can be actually wonderful at dealing with depression. Just see to it that you do not throw away the egg yolk. The yolk is the part of the egg that matters most in terms of helping raise your mood. Eggs, the egg yolk particularly, are stuffed full of B vitamins. B vitamins can be great for raising your mood. This is because they increase the function of your brain’s neural transmitters (the parts of the brain that affect how you feel). Try eating a few eggs to feel better!
Put together several trail mix of nuts or seeds. Your mood can be improved by consuming peanuts, almonds, cashews, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, etcetera. This is possible as these foods are rich in magnesium which increases serotonin production. Serotonin is a feel-good chemical that dictates to the brain how to feel at any given time. The more you have of it, the happier you will feel. Nuts, on top of elevating your mood, can be a super protein source.
If you want to overcome depression, try eating some cold water fish. Herring, trout, tuna, wild salmon, and mackerel are all high in omega-3 fatty acids and DHA. DHA and omega-3s are two things that actually help the grey matter in your brain run a lot better. It’s true: consuming a tuna fish sandwich can earnestly elevate your mood.
Grains can be wonderful for overcoming a bad mood. Quinoa, millet, teff and barley are all really wonderful for helping raise your happiness levels. These grains can help you feel full for longer also, which can help your mood too. It’s not difficult to feel low when you are starving! The reason these grains are so good for your mood is that they are not hard for your body to digest and process. These foods are easier to digest than others which helps promote a rise in your blood sugar which in turn takes your mood to a happier place.
Green tea is actually excellent for your mood. You knew green tea had to be included in this article, right? Green tea has a lot of an amino acid referred to as L-theanine. Studies have found that this amino acid basically stimulates brain waves. This helps improve your mental energy while simultaneously making the rest of your body more relaxed. You likely already knew it is not difficult to become healthy when you consume green tea. Now you know that green tea can improve your mood as well!
You can see, you don’t need junk food or foods that are terrible for you so you can feel better! Test out these suggestions instead!
