Use Food to Elevate Your Mood
Mostly, people have been trained to think that “comfort” foods are terrible for the body and should be avoided. But if your comfort food is candy or junk food this is true. Other times, however, comfort foods can be totally healthy and it’s good for you to eat them. Several foods really do raise your mood when you consume them. When you are feeling a little down and are in need of an emotional boost, test out a few of these.
Eggs, believe it or not, can be really wonderful at dealing with depression. You must make sure, 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 particularly, are high in B vitamins. B vitamins can be fantastic for raising your mood. This is because they help in improving the function of your neural transmitters, the components of your brain that control your mood. Eat a couple of eggs to feel better!
Put together several trail mix of nuts or seeds. Peanuts, cashews, sunflower seeds, almonds, pumpkin seeds, etc are all terrific for helping to elevate your mood. This is because seeds and nuts have lots of magnesium which raises your brain’s serotonin levels. Serotonin is a feel-good chemical substance that dictates to the brain how to feel at any given moment. The more serotonin in your brain, the happier you’ll feel. Not only that, nuts, particularly, are a great protein source.
If you wish to beat depression, you should eat some cold water fish. Cold water fish including tuna, trout and wild salmon are rich in DHA and omega-3 fats. These are two things that truly help the grey matter in your brain work a lot better. It’s true: chomping on a tuna fish sandwich can really help you fight depression.
Some grains are truly excellent for driving away bad moods. Barley, millet, quinoa, etc are excellent at helping you feel better. They help you feel full too which can truly help to make your mood better. It’s not difficult to feel a little bit off when you feel hungry! The reason these grains are so great for your mood is that they are easy 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 kicks up your mood to a happier place.
Green tea is really excellent for your mood. You were just anticipating to read that here, weren’t you? Green tea is high in a certain amino acid referred to as L-theanine. Studies show that this particular amino acid can essentially stimulate brain waves. This helps raise your mental acuity while calming the rest of your body. You probably already knew how easy it is to be healthy when you consume green tea. And now you know green tea can help you be happier as well!
