Turn to Food to Boost Your Mood
In general, people have been conditioned to believe that “comfort” foods are terrible for the body and have to be avoided. At times, if your comfort food is made of candy or other junk foods, this can be true. Otherwise, comfort foods may be super nutritious and good for you. There are several foods that actually can improve your moods when you consume them. When you feel a little down and are needing an emotional pick-me-up, test out a couple of these.
Eggs, believe it or not, can be truly great at fighting back depression. Just see to it that you do not throw out the yolk. Every time you wish to cheer yourself up, the yolk is the most crucial part of the egg. Eggs, particularly the egg yolks, are full of B vitamins. B vitamins can genuinely help you improve your mood. This is because they improve the function of your brain’s neural transmitters (the parts of the brain that affect how you feel). Eat a couple of eggs to cheer up!
Put together a trail mixout of a variety of seeds and nuts. Almonds, cashews, peanuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, and so on are all good for raising your mood. This is because these nuts are loaded with magnesium, which helps to boost serotonin production. Serotonin is a feel-good substance that directs the brain how to feel at any given moment. The more serotonin you have, the more pleasant you will feel. Not just that, nuts, particularly, are a great source of protein.
Cold water fish are good if you wish to feel better. Herring, trout, tuna, wild salmon, and mackerel are all rich in omega-3s and DHA. These are two things that actually help the grey matter in your brain function a lot better. It’s true: eating a tuna fish sandwich can actually help you overcome depression.
Grains can be wonderful for fighting a bad mood. Quinoa, millet, teff and barley are all actually great for helping increase your happiness levels. They help you feel full as well which can truly help to better your mood. It’s easy to feel low when you feel famished! The reason these grains are so great for your mood is that they are not hard to digest. These foods are easier to digest than others which helps jumpstart a rise in your blood sugar which in turn brings up your mood to a happier place.
Green tea is truly excellent for your mood. You just knew it had to be mentioned in this article, right? Green tea is packed full of an amino acid known as L-theanine.
