Try Using Food to Improve Your Mood
In general, people have been taught to think that “comfort” foods are terrible for the body and need to be avoided. Sometimes, if the comfort food is a high sugar food or some other junk food, this is true. Otherwise, comfort foods can be extremely nourishing and good for you. Several foods honestly do elevate your mood when you eat them. When you are feeling a little down and need an emotional pick-me-up, try a couple of these.
Eggs, you might be surprised to discover, are wonderful at combating depression. Just see to it that you don’t throw away the yolk. The yolk is the part of the egg that is the most important in terms of helping elevate your mood. Eggs, especially the yolks, are full of B vitamins. B vitamins can really help you raise your mood. This is because they help your neural transmitters–the parts of your brain that dictate your mood–work better. Consume an egg and cheer up!
Build a trail mix from seeds and/or nuts. Your mood can be elevated by eating peanuts, almonds, cashews, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, etcetera. This is because seeds and nuts have plenty of magnesium which raises your brain’s serotonin levels. Serotonin is the “feel good” chemical that tells your brain how you feel at all times. The more of this chemical in your brain, the better you’ll feel. Not just that, nuts, specifically, are a terrific protein source.
Cold water fish are wonderful for eating if you want to beat back depression. Wild salmon, herring, mackerel, trout, and tuna are all full of omega-3 fatty acids and DHA. These are two substances that boost the quality and function of the gray matter in your brain. It’s true: consuming a tuna fish sandwich can really help you overcome depression.
Some grains are really great for driving away bad moods. Quinoa, barley, teff, millet, etc are all good for helping you feel better. They help you feel full as well which can really help to better your mood. Feeling starved can really make you feel awful! These grains can improve your mood since it’s not at all difficult for your body to digest them. These foods are easier to digest than others which helps jumpstart a rise in your blood glucose which in turn brings up your mood to a happier place.
Green tea is really excellent for your mood. You knew it had to be mentioned in this article, right? Green tea has been found to be chock-full of an amino acid called L-theanine. Research has found that this amino acid stimulates the production of brain waves. This helps improve your mental sharpness while having a relaxing effect on the rest of your body. You were already aware that green tea could help you be healthier. And now you know it can help raise your mood also!
Now you realize that junk food isn’t necessarily what you should eat when you want to help your moods get better. Try a couple of of these suggestions instead.
