Foods That Can Make Your Mood Better
For the most part, people have been conditioned to think that “comfort” foods are not good for the body and must be avoided. Often, if the comfort food is a sugary food or some other junk food, this holds true. Otherwise, comfort foods could be extremely nourishing and good for you. There are a number of foods that really can improve your moods when you consume them. If you seem to be a little bit down and in need of an emotional pick me up, try a number of these.
Eggs, you may be amazed to learn, are wonderful at combating depression. Just see to it that you don’t get rid of the egg yolk. The yolk is the part of the egg that is the most crucial in terms of helping elevate your mood. Eggs, particularly the yolks, are loaded with B vitamins. B vitamins can actually help you elevate your mood. This is because the B vitamins improve the function of your brain’s neural transmitters (the parts of the brain that tell you how to feel). Consume an egg and be happy!
Put together several trail mix of nuts or seeds. Almonds, cashews, peanuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, and so on are all good for raising your mood. This is because these foods are loaded with magnesium, which helps to raise serotonin production. Serotonin is a feel-good substance that tells the brain how to feel at any given point in time. The more of it you have, the happier you are going to feel. Nuts, in addition to raising your mood, can be a super protein source.
Cold water fish are excellent for eating if you are wanting to fight depression. Tuna, trout, mackerel, herring and wild salmon are all rich in omega-3s and DHA. Omega-3 fatty acids and DHA are two things that actually help the grey matter in your brain run a lot better. It’s true: consuming a tuna fish sandwich can earnestly elevate your mood.
Some grains are really great for repelling bad moods. Millet, quinoa, barley, etc are great at helping you feel happier. They fill you up better and that can help elevate your moods also. Feeling starved can truly make you feel terrible! The reason these grains help your mood so much is that they are not hard for your body to digest. They are easier to digest than other foods which helps kick up your blood sugar levels and that, in turn, elevates your mood.
Green tea is truly great for your mood. You were just anticipating to read that, weren’t you? Green tea is rich in an amino acid called L-theanine. Research has proven that this amino acid promotes the production of brain waves. This helps sharpen your mental energy while simultaneously calming your body. You were already aware that green tea could help you become better. Now you know that green tea helps you to lift your moods also!
As you can see, you don’t need junk food or foods that are bad for you just so to feel better! Try several of these instead!
