Information on How to Elevate Your Mood with Food
Most of us have been taught to think that comfort foods are terrible and must be avoided. Often, if the comfort food is a sugary food or another junk food, this is very true. Otherwise, comfort foods can be very healthy and good for you. There are some foods that actually can boost your moods when you consume them. If you are feeling a little bit down and need a happiness pick me up, try a few of these.
Eggs, you might be amazed to learn, are great at fighting depression. Just see to it that you don’t throw away the egg yolk. The yolk is the most essential part of the egg iwhen it comes to helping raise your mood. Eggs, the egg yolks especially, are loaded with B vitamins. B vitamins can truly help you boost your mood.

Put together a trail mix out of seeds and/or nuts. Your mood can be elevated by eating peanuts, almonds, cashews, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, etc. This is because seeds and nuts have a lot of magnesium which boosts your brain’s serotonin levels.

It’s not difficult to fight your bad mood when you consume grains. Millet, quinoa, barley, etc are great at helping you be happier. These grains can help you feel full for longer as well, which can help your mood too. Feeling famished can be a real downer! The reason these grains elevate your mood is that they are not hard for your body to digest. They are simpler to digest than other foods which helps kick up your blood sugar levels and that, in turn, improves your mood.
