Information on How to Boost Your Mood with Food
Mostly, people have been trained to think that “comfort” foods are not good for the body and must be avoided. If your comfort food is candy or junk food this might be true. Otherwise, comfort foods can be extremely nutritious and good for you. There are some foods that really can improve your moods when you consume them. If you seem to be a little bit down and you’re needing an emotional pick me up, try several of these.
Eggs, believe it or not, can be actually great at fighting back depression. Just make sure that you don’t toss out the yolk. The yolk is the part of the egg that is the most crucial in terms of helping raise your mood. Eggs, especially the yolks, are loaded with B vitamins. The B vitamin family can be terrific for raising your mood. This is because they help your neural transmitters–the parts of your brain that control your mood–run better. Eat an egg and be happy!
Build a trail mix from seeds and/or nuts. Almonds, cashews, peanuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, and so on are all good for improving your mood. This is because seeds and nuts have lots of magnesium which increases your brain’s serotonin levels. Serotonin is the “feel good” chemical that tells your brain how you feel day in and day out. The higher your serotonin levels, the happier you will feel. Nuts, in addition to improving your mood, can be a superb protein source.
If you wish to defeat depression, you should eat some cold water fish. Wild salmon, herring, mackerel, trout, and tuna are all rich in omega-3 fatty acids and DHA. These are two things that really help the grey matter in your brain function a lot better. It’s true: eating a tuna fish sandwich can seriously raise your mood.
It’s not difficult to fight your bad mood when you consume grains. Millet, quinoa, barley, etc are terrific at helping you feel happier. These foods can help you feel full for longer as well, which can help your mood too. Feeling famished can be a real downer! The reason these grains are so good for your mood is that they are not hard for your body to digest and process. These foods are easier to digest than others which helps jumpstart a rise in your glucose levels which in turn takes your mood to a happier place.
Green tea is really good for your mood. You knew it had to be in here somewhere, right? Green tea is loaded with a certain amino acid referred to as L-theanine. Research has found that this amino acid stimulates the production of brain waves. This will better your brain’s focus while at the same relaxing the rest of your body. You likely already knew it is not hard to be healthy when you drink green tea. Now you know that green tea can elevate your mood too!
Now you can see that junk food isn’t necessarily what you should eat when you are wanting to help your moods get better. Try some of these instead!
