Try Using Food to Elevate Your Mood

In general, people have been taught to believe that “comfort” foods are not good for the body and must be avoided. At times, if the comfort food is candy or some other junk food, this holds true. Other times, though, comfort foods can be totally nourishing and it’s good for you to eat them. Some foods honestly do elevate your mood when you eat them. When you are feeling a little down and are in need of an emotional boost, test out a couple of these.

Eggs, believe it or not, can be really wonderful at fighting back depression. Just see to it that you don’t toss out the yolk. The egg yolk is the part of the egg that matters most in terms of helping elevate your mood. Eggs, the yolk especially, are stuffed full of B vitamins. B vitamins can genuinely help you raise 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). Try eating an egg and cheer up!

Build a trail mix from seeds and/or nuts. Almonds, cashews, peanuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, and so on are all wonderful for raising your mood. This is because these foods are loaded with magnesium, which helps to increase serotonin levels. Serotonin is a feel-good chemical substance that tells the brain how to feel at any given point in time. The more of it in your brain, the more pleasant you’ll feel. Not just that, nuts, specifically, are a terrific protein food source.

If you wish to battle depression, try consuming some cold water fish. Cold water fish such as tuna, trout and wild salmon are chock full of DHA and omega-3 fats. Omega-3 fatty acids and DHA are two things that really help the grey matter in your brain function a lot better. It’s true: consuming a tuna fish sandwich can earnestly raise your mood.

It’s easy to drive away your bad mood when you consume grains. Quinoa, millet, teff and barley are all really excellent for helping raise your happiness levels. These grains fill you up better and that can help you with your moods as well. It’s not hard to feel low when you feel famished! These grains can elevate your mood because it’s easy for your body to digest them. These foods are easier to digest than others which helps kick start a rise in your blood sugar which in turn kicks up your mood to a happier place.

Your mood can really be helped by green tea. You were just expecting to read that here, weren’t you? Green tea is high in a specific amino acid referred to as L-theanine. Research has proven that this amino acid promotes the production of brain waves. This helps improve your mental sharpness while calming the rest of your body. You already knew green tea could help you feel better. Now you know that green tea can improve your mood too!

See, you don’t need to stuff your face with junk food when you want to feel better! Try some of these instead!
