Foods That Make Your Mood Better

In general, people have been conditioned to think that “comfort” foods are not good for the body and should be avoided. Often, if the comfort food is a sugary food or another junk food, this holds true. At times, comfort foods can be very nourishing and good for us to consume. There are a number of foods that, when you eat them, may better your mood. If you feel a little bit down and you’re in need of a happiness pick me up, try a couple of these.

Eggs, would you believe, are wonderful for helping you fight depression. You need to be sure, though, that what you make includes the egg yolk. The egg yolk is the most essential part of the egg in terms of helping you cheer up. Eggs, specifically the yolks, are loaded with B vitamins. The B vitamin family can be terrific for boosting your mood. This is because the B vitamins increase the function of your brain’s neural transmitters (the parts of the brain that tell you how to feel). Consume an egg and jolly up!

Put together a few trail mix of nuts or seeds. Almonds, cashews, peanuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, etc are all great for improving your mood. This is because seeds and nuts have lots of magnesium which raises your brain’s serotonin levels. Serotonin is the “feel good” natural substance that dictates to your brain how you feel all the time. The more of this chemical in your brain, the better you’ll feel. Not only that, nuts, specifically, are a great protein source.

Cold water fish are excellent if you would like to feel happier. Tuna, trout, mackerel, herring and wild salmon are all rich in omega-3s and DHA. DHA and omega-3s are two things that truly help the grey matter in your brain function a lot better. It’s true: chomping on a tuna fish sandwich can basically help you fight back depression.

It’s not hard to drive away your bad mood when you eat 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 elevate your moods also. It’s easy to feel a little bit off when you feel famished! The reason these grains are so wonderful for your mood is that they are easy for your stomach to digest. You digest these grains more quickly than other foods which can help boost your blood sugar levels, which, in turn, helps make you feel more pleasant, mood wise.

Green tea is wonderful for moods. You were sure green tea had to be mentioned, right? Green tea is found to be rich in an amino acid known as L-theanine. Studies have found that this particular amino acid can actually stimulate brain waves. This helps raise your mental sharpness while calming the rest of your body. You knew that green tea helps you feel healthier. And now you know green tea can help improve your mood as well!

You can see, you don’t need to eat junk food or foods that are terrible for you so you can feel better! Try some of these tips instead.
