Use Food to Elevate Your Mood
In general, people have been conditioned to believe that “comfort” foods are not good for the body and should be avoided. Often, if your comfort food is essentially candy or other junk foods, this can be true. Otherwise, comfort foods could be very nourishing and good for you. There are some foods that, when you consume them, can better your mood. If you feel a little bit down and need a happiness pick me up, try a couple of these.
Eggs, believe it or not, are fantastic for helping you fight depression. Just see to it that you do not toss the egg yolk. Every time you wish to cheer yourself up, the yolk is the most essential part of the egg. Eggs, specifically the yolks, are loaded with B vitamins. These B vitamins are fantastic for helping to boost your mood. This is because they help in bettering the function of your neural transmitters, the parts of your brain that dictate your mood. Eat an egg and feel a lot better!
Make a trail mixfrom various seeds and nuts. Peanuts, cashews, sunflower seeds, almonds, pumpkin seeds, etc are all terrific for helping to boost your mood. This is possible since these foods are rich in magnesium which increases serotonin production. Serotonin is the “feel good” natural substance that tells your brain how you feel at all times. The higher your serotonin levels, the more pleasant you will feel. Not just that but nuts, in particular, are a fantastic protein food source.
Cold water fish are great for eating if you wish to combat depression. Salmon, herring, tuna, mackerel, trout, and so on, they’re all chock-full of omega-3 fatty acids and DHA. These are two things that raise the quality and the function of your brain’s gray matter. It’s the truth: consuming tuna fish sandwiches can really help you battle your depression.
Some grains are really great for fighting off bad moods. Millet, quinoa, barley, etc are excellent at helping you be happier. They can help you feel full for longer too, helping you feel better. Feeling hungry can be a real downer! The reason these grains elevate your mood is that they are easy to digest. You digest these grains more quickly than other things which can help promote your blood sugar levels, which, in turn, helps make you feel happier, mood wise.
Green tea is fantastic for moods. You just knew it had to be in here somewhere, right? Green tea is rich in an amino acid called L-theanine. Research has found that this amino acid promotes the production of brain waves. This will improve your brain’s focus while simultaneously relaxing the rest of your body. You probably already knew it is not difficult to become healthy when you drink green tea. Now you know it can help you be happier also!
So you see, you don’t need junk food or foods that are bad for you just so to feel better! Go with these suggestions instead!
