Learn How to Elevate Your Mood with Food
Many of us have been conditioned to think that comfort foods are not good and are to be avoided. However, if your comfort food is candy or junk food this might be true. At times, comfort foods can be perfectly healthy and good for us to consume. There are a number of foods that actually can improve your moods when you eat them. If you feel a little bit down and you need an emotional pick me up, try a number of these.
Eggs, believe it or not, can be truly wonderful at dealing with depression. Just make sure that you don’t throw away the yolk. The egg yolk is the part of the egg that is the most important in terms of helping you cheer up. Eggs, the yolk in particular, are stuffed full of B vitamins. These B vitamins are fantastic for helping to raise your mood. This is because these vitamins help your neural transmitters–the parts of your brain that dictate your mood–run better. Try eating an egg and be happy!
Make some trail mix of nuts or seeds. Your mood can be improved by consuming peanuts, almonds, cashews, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, etcetera. This is possible since these foods are high in magnesium which boosts your production of serotonin. Serotonin is the “feel good” chemical that dictates to your brain how you feel day in and day out. The more of it in your brain, the happier you’ll feel. Not only that, nuts, specifically, are a great protein source.
Cold water fish are great if you wish to feel happier. Herring, trout, tuna, wild salmon, and mackerel are all high in omega-3s and DHA. DHA and omega-3s are two things that improve the quality and the function of your brain’s gray matter. It’s true: eating a tuna fish sandwich can really help you fight depression.
It’s not difficult to overcome your bad mood when you consume grains. Barley, millet, quinoa, etc are terrific at helping you be happier. They help you feel full as well which can actually help to better your mood. It’s not hard to feel a little bit off when you feel famished! The reason these grains can improve your mood is that they are not difficult for your stomach to digest. These foods are easier to digest than others which helps kick start a rise in your blood glucose which in turn takes your mood to a happier place.
Green tea is really good for your mood. You knew green tea had to be mentioned, right? Green tea has been found to be chock-full of an amino acid called L-theanine. Studies prove that this specific amino acid can basically induce brain waves. This will better your brain’s focus while also calming the rest of your body. You likely already knew how easy it is to get healthy when you drink green tea. Now you know that green tea can improve your mood too!
Now you know that junk food isn’t necessarily what you need to eat when you are wanting to help your moods get better. Go with these suggestions instead!
