Foods That Make You Happy

In general, people have been trained to think that “comfort” foods are terrible for the body and have to be avoided. At times, if your comfort food is basically candy or other junk foods, this is true. Other times, though, comfort foods can be totally nutritious and it’s good for you to eat them. A number of foods honestly do boost your mood when you eat them. If you are feeling a little bit down and in need of an emotional pick me up, try several of these.

Eggs, you may be surprised to find out, are great at battling depression. Just be sure that you don’t toss out the yolk. Whenever you wish to cheer yourself up, the yolk is the most essential part of the egg. Eggs, the yolks in particular, are rich in B vitamins. B vitamins can really help you elevate 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 feel a lot happier!

Build a trail mix out of seeds and/or nuts. Your mood can be raised by eating peanuts, almonds, cashews, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, and so on. This is because these foods are loaded with magnesium, which helps to raise serotonin levels. Serotonin is a feel-good substance that tells the brain how to feel at any given time. The more of this chemical in your brain, the happier you’ll feel. Nuts, on top of bettering your mood, can be a super source of protein.

If you wish to defeat depression, try eating some cold water fish. Cold water fish such as tuna, trout and wild salmon are rich in DHA and omega-3s. These are two substances that increase the quality and function of the gray matter in your brain. It’s true: consuming a tuna fish sandwich can greatly raise your mood.

It’s easy to fight your bad mood when you are eating grains. Millet, quinoa, barley, etc are terrific at helping you be happier. They help you feel full as well which can really help to better your mood. It’s not difficult to feel a little bit off when you feel hungry! The reason these grains help your mood so much is that they are not difficult for your body to digest. These foods are easier to digest than others which helps promote a rise in your blood glucose which in turn brings up your mood to a happier place.

Green tea is excellent for moods. You were just expecting to read that here, weren’t you? Green tea has been found to be packed full of an amino acid known as L-theanine.
