Information on How to Elevate Your Mood with Food
In general, people have been trained to think that “comfort” foods are not good for the body and need to be avoided. Often, if your comfort food is made of candy or other junk foods, this is true. Otherwise, comfort foods could be extremely healthy and good for you. There are several foods that, when you eat them, could boost your mood. If you feel a little bit down and you need an emotional pick me up, try several of these.
Eggs, believe it or not, can be actually terrific at fighting back depression. Just make sure that you do not throw out the egg yolk. The egg yolk is the part of the egg that matters most in terms of helping elevate your mood. Eggs, especially the yolks, are rich in B vitamins. B vitamins can really help you elevate your mood. This is because they increase the function of your brain’s neural transmitters (the parts of the brain that affect how you feel). Eat a couple of eggs to jolly up!
Put together some trail mix of nuts or seeds. Your mood can be improved by consuming peanuts, almonds, cashews, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, etcetera. This is because seeds and nuts have lots of magnesium which raises your brain’s serotonin levels. Serotonin is known as the “feel good” chemical substance and it tells your brain how you should be feeling all the time. The higher your serotonin levels, the happier you will feel. Not only that, nuts, specifically, are a terrific source of protein.
Cold water fish are good if you wish to feel happier. Salmon, herring, tuna fish, mackerel, trout, etc, they’re all chock-full of omega-3 fatty acids and DHA. DHA and omega-3s are two things that actually help the grey matter in your brain function a lot better. It’s the truth: consuming tuna fish sandwiches can really help you fight your depression.
It’s not difficult to overcome your bad mood when you consume grains. Quinoa, barley, millet, etc are excellent at helping you feel happier. These grains can help you feel full for longer too, which can help your mood too. It’s not hard to feel low when you are starving! These grains can improve your mood since it’s not at all hard for your body to digest them. They are easier to digest than other foods which helps kick up your blood sugar levels and that, in turn, improves your mood.
Green tea is actually great for your mood. You were sure green tea had to be included in this article, right? Green tea has been found to be chock-full of an amino acid known as L-theanine. Studies have found that this particular amino acid can essentially induce brain waves. This will improve your brain’s focus while at the same calming the rest of your body. You likely already knew it is not hard to become healthy when you consume green tea. Now you know that applies to your mood too!
You can see, you don’t need to eat junk food or foods that are terrible for you just so to feel better! Try these suggestions instead!
