Information on How to Boost Your Mood with Food
Most of us think that comfort foods are bad for us and that we need to avoid them. Sometimes, if the comfort food is a sugary food or some other junk food, this is true. At times, comfort foods can be utterly nourishing and good for us to consume. There are a number of foods that really can boost your moods when you eat them. If you seem to be a little bit down and you need an emotional pick me up, try a number of these.
Eggs, you might be amazed to discover, are terrific at battling depression. Just see to it that you don’t toss out the yolk. The yolk is the part of the egg that matters most in terms of helping raise your mood. Eggs, the yolks especially, are rich in B vitamins. These B vitamins are great for helping to raise 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). Try consuming a couple of eggs to cheer up!
Build a trail mix out of seeds and/or nuts. Almonds, cashews, peanuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, etc are all great for improving your mood. This is possible as these foods are rich in magnesium which promotes serotonin production. Serotonin is the “feel good” chemical that directs your brain how you feel day in and day out. The higher your levels of serotonin, the more pleasant you are going to feel. Nuts, in addition to raising your mood, can be a super protein source.
If you wish to beat depression, you should eat some cold water fish. Salmon, herring, tuna, mackerel, trout, and so on, they’re all chock-full of omega-3s and DHA. Omega-3 fatty acids and DHA are two things that really help the grey matter in your brain function a lot better. It’s true: consuming a tuna fish sandwich can greatly elevate your mood.
It’s easy to drive away your bad mood when you are eating grains. Millet, quinoa, barley, etc are great at helping you have a happier mood. These foods fill you up better and that can help you with your moods also. It’s easy to feel a little bit off when you feel hungry! The reason these grains can improve your mood is that they are not hard for your body to digest. You digest these foods faster than other things which can help increase your blood sugar levels, which, in turn, helps make you feel happier, mood wise.
Green tea is actually great for your mood. You just knew green tea had to be mentioned, right? Green tea is chock-full of an amino acid referred to as L-theanine. Research has proved that this amino acid stimulates the production of brain waves. This will improve your brain’s focus while also calming the rest of your body. You knew that green tea helps you be a lot healthier. Now you know that green tea can elevate your mood too!
Now you can see that junk food isn’t necessarily what you need to eat when you are wanting to help your moods get better. Try these tips instead!
