Foods That Can Make Your Mood Better
Most of us think that comfort foods are not good for us and that we must keep away from them. But if your comfort food is candy or junk food this holds true. Other times, though, comfort foods can be completely nutritious and it’s good for you to consume them. Some foods honestly do elevate your mood when you consume them. If you seem to feel a little bit down and need a happiness pick me up, try a few of these.
Eggs, believe it or not, can be really terrific at beating back depression. Just be sure that you do not throw away the egg yolk. The yolk is the part of the egg that is the most crucial in terms of helping you cheer up. Eggs, specifically the egg yolks, are full of B vitamins. B vitamins can actually help you raise your mood. This is because they help your neural transmitters–the parts of your brain that control your mood–work better. Try eating an egg and cheer up!
Put together a trail mixfrom different seeds and nuts. Almonds, cashews, peanuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, etcetera are all helpful for elevating your mood. This is because seeds and nuts have lots of magnesium which increases your brain’s serotonin levels. Serotonin is called the “feel good” chemical and it tells your brain how you should be feeling day in and day out. The more serotonin you have, the more pleasant you will feel. Not only that but nuts, specifically, are a terrific protein source.
Cold water fish are wonderful for eating if you want to beat back depression. Herring, trout, tuna, wild salmon, and mackerel are all full of omega-3 fatty acids and DHA. Omega-3 fatty acids and DHA are two things that truly help the grey matter in your brain function a lot better. It’s true: eating a tuna fish sandwich can seriously elevate your mood.
It’s not hard to fight your bad mood when you consume grains. Quinoa, barley, teff, millet, etc are all excellent for helping you feel better. These grains fill you up better and that can help you with your moods as well. Feeling starved can actually 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 promote a rise in your sugar levels which in turn takes your mood to a happier place.
Green tea is actually excellent for your mood. You knew green tea had to be included in this article, right? Green tea is found to be rich in an amino acid known as L-theanine. Research has discovered that this amino acid promotes the production of brain waves. This helps raise your mental acuity while having a relaxing effect on the rest of your body. You were already aware that green tea could help you become better. Now you know that it helps you to elevate your moods too!
So you see, you don’t need to eat junk food or foods that are terrible for you so you can feel better! Try a few of these instead!
