These B vitamins are great for helping to elevate your mood. This is because they increase the function of your brain’s neural transmitters (the parts of the brain that dictate how you feel).

Some grains are really great for repelling bad moods. Barley, quinoa, millet, teff, etc are all good for helping you feel happier.
