Use Food to Improve Your Mood

In general, people have been conditioned to believe that “comfort” foods are terrible for the body and should be avoided. Often, if the comfort food is a sugary food or another junk food, this is very true. Otherwise, comfort foods could be really nutritious and good for you. There are several foods that actually can improve your moods when you eat them. If you feel a little bit down and in need of an emotional pick me up, try some of these.

Eggs, would you believe, are fantastic for helping you combat depression. Just see to it that you don’t throw away the egg yolk. The yolk is the most important part of the egg in terms of helping you cheer up. Eggs, the egg yolks particularly, are loaded with B vitamins. B vitamins can be terrific for lifting up your mood. This is because the B vitamins help your neural transmitters–the parts of your brain that affect your mood–function better. Consume an egg and feel happier!

Put together a trail mix from seeds and/or nuts. Peanuts, cashews, sunflower seeds, almonds, pumpkin seeds, etc are all great for helping to raise your mood. This is because these foods are high in magnesium, which helps to increase serotonin levels. Serotonin is the “feel good” natural substance that tells your brain how you feel day in and day out. The more serotonin you have, the happier you will feel. Nuts, on top of raising your mood, can be a super source of protein.

If you want to overcome depression, try eating some cold water fish. Salmon, herring, tuna fish, mackerel, trout, etcetera, they’re all loaded with omega-3 fatty acids and DHA. These are two substances that boost the quality and function of the gray matter in your brain. It’s the truth: consuming tuna fish sandwiches can really help you battle your depression.

It’s easy to overcome your bad mood when you eat grains. Millet, quinoa, barley, etc are great at helping you have a happier mood. They can help you feel full for longer too, which is a mood improver. It’s not hard to feel depressed when you feel famished! The reason these grains are so great for your mood is that they are easy to digest. They are easier to digest than other foods which helps raise your blood sugar levels and that, in turn, elevates your mood.

Green tea is actually good for your mood. You knew green tea had to be mentioned, right? Green tea is loaded with a certain amino acid called L-theanine. Research has discovered that this amino acid stimulates the production of brain waves. This helps improve your mental energy while simultaneously calming your body. You probably already knew how easy it is to become healthy when you drink green tea. Now you are aware that it helps you to lift your moods too!

So you see, you don’t need to eat junk food or foods that are not good for you so you can feel better! Try a couple of of these suggestions instead.
