Foods That Make You Happy
A lot of us think that comfort foods are not good for us and that we ought to avoid them. At times, if your comfort food is a sugary food or another junk food, this is very true. At times, comfort foods can be utterly healthy and good for us to eat. There are a number of foods that actually can raise your moods when you eat them. When you feel a little down and are in need of an emotional pick-me-up, try some of these.
Eggs, believe it or not, can be actually wonderful at fighting back depression. You must make sure, though, that what you make includes the yolk. The yolk is the most essential part of the egg in terms of helping you cheer up. Eggs, the egg yolk in particular, are stuffed full of B vitamins. B vitamins can actually help you elevate your mood. This is because they help improve the function of your neural transmitters, the components of your brain that control your mood. Try to eat an egg and feel a lot happier!
Build a trail mix out of seeds and/or nuts. Peanuts, cashews, sunflower seeds, almonds, pumpkin seeds, etcetera are all fantastic for helping to boost your mood. This is because these foods are loaded with magnesium, which helps to increase serotonin levels. Serotonin is known as the “feel good” chemical substance and it tells your brain how you should be feeling at all times. The higher your levels of serotonin, the more pleasant you are going to feel. Not just that, nuts, specifically, are a terrific protein source.
Cold water fish are great for eating if you wish to fight depression. Salmon, herring, tuna fish, mackerel, trout, and so on, they’re all chock-full of omega-3 fatty acids and DHA. These are two substances that increase the quality and function of the gray matter in your brain. It’s true: eating a tuna fish sandwich can earnestly raise your mood.
Some grains are really great for driving away bad moods. Teff, barley, millet, quinoa, etc are all great for helping you feel happier. They can help you feel full for longer as well, which can help your mood too. It’s not difficult to feel depressed when you feel hungry! The reason these grains are so great for your mood is that they are not difficult for your body to digest and process. You digest these foods quicker than other things which can help increase your blood sugar levels, which, in turn, helps make you feel more pleasant, mood wise.
Green tea is fantastic for moods. You were sure green tea had to be mentioned, right? Green tea is loaded with a specific amino acid known as L-theanine. Studies have found that this amino acid basically stimulates brain waves. This will improve your brain’s focus while simultaneously loosening up the rest of your body. You knew green tea could help you be better. Now you are well aware that it helps you to lift your moods also!
See, you don’t need to eat all that junk food when you are wanting to feel better! Try several of these instead!
