How to Elevate Your Mood with Food
A lot of us think that comfort foods are terrible for us and that we should avoid them. If your comfort food is candy or junk food this can be true. Otherwise, comfort foods may be super healthy and good for you. Several foods actually do improve your mood when you eat them. If you seem to feel a little bit down and need a happiness pick me up, try some of these.
Eggs, believe it or not, can be really great at fighting back depression. Just see to it that you don’t throw away the yolk. Whenever you wish to cheer yourself up, the yolk is the most vital part of the egg. Eggs, specifically the egg yolks, are rich in B vitamins. These B vitamins are terrific for helping to elevate your mood. This is because these vitamins help your neural transmitters–the parts of your brain that dictate your mood–run better. Consume an egg and feel happier!
Make a trail mix from seeds and/or nuts. Almonds, cashews, peanuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, etc are all wonderful for elevating your mood. This is possible since these foods are high in magnesium which promotes your production of serotonin. Serotonin is the “feel good” chemical that directs your brain how you feel day in and day out. The more serotonin in your brain, the more pleasant you’ll feel. Not only that, nuts, specifically, are a fantastic source of protein.
If you would like to overcome depression, try eating some cold water fish. Tuna, trout, mackerel, herring and wild salmon are all high in omega-3 fatty acids and DHA. Omega-3 fatty acids and DHA are two things that actually help the grey matter in your brain function a lot better. It’s true: chomping on a tuna fish sandwich can basically help you fight back depression.
It’s not difficult to drive away your bad mood when you consume grains. Quinoa, barley, millet, etc are terrific at helping you feel happier. These grains fill you up better and that can help you with your moods too. It’s easy to feel low when you feel famished! The reason these grains are so wonderful for your mood is that they are not difficult to digest. They are easier to digest than other foods which helps bring up your blood sugar levels and that, in turn, elevates your mood.
