Discover How to Elevate Your Mood with Food
A lot of us have been taught to think that comfort foods are not good and must be avoided. If your comfort food is candy or junk food this is true. Other times, though, comfort foods can be totally nourishing and it’s good for you to consume them. There are a number of foods that, when you consume them, may better your mood. When you feel a little down and need an emotional pick-me-up, try a couple of these.
Eggs, believe it or not, can be really terrific at dealing with depression. Just be sure that you do not throw out the yolk. The egg yolk is the part of the egg that matters most in terms of helping you cheer up. Eggs, the yolk in particular, are stuffed full of B vitamins. These B vitamins are great for helping to improve your mood. This is because they help your neural transmitters–the parts of your brain that affect your mood–function better. Eat a few eggs to feel better!
Put together some trail mix of nuts or seeds. Your mood can be raised by eating peanuts, almonds, cashews, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, and so on. This is because seeds and nuts have lots of magnesium which boosts your brain’s serotonin levels. Serotonin is the “feel good” natural substance that dictates to your brain how you feel at all times. The more you have of it, the happier you will feel. Not only that but nuts, in particular, are a great protein food source.
Cold water fish are wonderful for eating if you wish to beat back depression. Salmon, herring, tuna, mackerel, trout, etcetera, they’re all loaded with omega-3 and DHA. Omega-3 fatty acids and DHA are two things that promote the quality and the function of your brain’s grey matter. It’s the truth: eating tuna fish sandwiches can actually help you fight your depression.
Grains can be great for overcoming a bad mood. Quinoa, barley, teff, millet, etc are all great for helping you feel better. These grains fill you up better and that can help you with your moods also. Feeling starved can actually make you feel awful! These grains can help your mood elevate since it’s not at all difficult for your body to digest them. You digest these foods faster than other foods which can help increase your blood sugar levels, which, in turn, helps make you feel happier, mood wise.
Your mood can truly be helped by green tea. You just knew it had to be included in this article, right? Green tea is rich in an amino acid known as L-theanine. Studies have found that this particular amino acid can essentially induce brain waves. This will improve your brain’s focus while at the same loosening up the rest of your body. You already knew that green tea helps you feel a lot healthier. Now you know that applies to your mood too!
So you see, you don’t need to stuff your face with junk food when you are wanting to feel better! Try these suggestions instead!
