Discover How to Elevate Your Mood with Food
For the most part, people have been conditioned to think that “comfort” foods are terrible for the body and should be avoided. Sometimes, if your comfort food is candy or another junk food, this is true. At times, comfort foods can be very nutritious and good for us to eat. Some foods honestly do improve your mood when you consume them. If you feel a little bit down and need a happiness pick me up, try a few of these.
Eggs, believe it or not, can be actually terrific at beating back depression. Just see to it that you don’t throw away the yolk. The yolk is the most important part of the egg iwhen it comes to helping elevate your mood. Eggs, the yolks especially, are loaded with B vitamins. The B vitamin family can be great for lifting up your mood. This is because they increase the function of your brain’s neural transmitters (the parts of the brain that dictate how you feel). Consume an egg and feel happier!
Put together some trail mix of nuts or seeds. Almonds, cashews, peanuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, etcetera are all good for raising your mood. This is because these foods are loaded with magnesium, which helps to boost serotonin production. Serotonin is known as the “feel good” substance that our body produces and it tells your brain how you should be feeling all the time. The more you have of it, the more pleasant you will feel. Not only that but nuts, specifically, are a fantastic protein food source.
If you wish to defeat depression, try eating some cold water fish. Salmon, herring, tuna, mackerel, trout, etc, they’re all chock-full of omega-3s and DHA. DHA and omega-3s are two things that improve the quality and the function of your brain’s grey matter. It’s true: consuming a tuna fish sandwich can really help you fight depression.
Some grains are actually wonderful for fighting off bad moods. Barley, millet, quinoa, etc are fantastic at helping you have a happier mood. They fill you up better and that can help elevate your moods also. Feeling starved can really bring you down! These grains can elevate your mood since it’s not at all difficult 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 takes your mood to a happier place.
