Turn to Food to Elevate Your Mood

For the most part, people have been conditioned to think that “comfort” foods are terrible for the body and have to be avoided. Sometimes, if your comfort food is made of candy or other junk foods, this can be true. At times, comfort foods can be utterly nutritious and good for us to eat. There are some foods that, when you consume them, could boost your mood. When you feel a little down and are needing an emotional boost, try a few of these.

Eggs, you might be astonished to discover, are wonderful at battling depression. Just be sure that you do not throw out the yolk. The yolk is the part of the egg that is the most important in terms of helping elevate your mood. Eggs, particularly the egg yolks, are full of B vitamins. These B vitamins are great for helping to boost your mood. This is because they help your neural transmitters–the parts of your brain that control your mood–function better. Consume an egg and cheer up!

Make a trail mixout of various seeds and nuts. Almonds, cashews, peanuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, and so on are all helpful for raising your mood. This is possible since these foods are high in magnesium which raises your production of serotonin. Serotonin is the “feel good” natural substance that directs your brain how you feel day in and day out. The more of it you have, the more pleasant you are going to feel. Not just that, nuts, specifically, are a fantastic source of protein.

If you want to fight depression, you should eat some cold water fish. Tuna, trout, mackerel, herring and wild salmon are all full of omega-3s and DHA. These are two things that raise the quality and the function of your brain’s gray matter. It’s true: eating a tuna fish sandwich can really help you overcome depression.

Some grains are actually wonderful for fighting off bad moods. Quinoa, millet, teff and barley are all truly wonderful for helping raise your happiness levels. They can help you feel full for longer too, which can help your mood too. Feeling hungry can really make you feel awful! These grains can help your mood elevate because it’s easy 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, raises your mood.

Green tea is truly excellent for your mood. You were sure it had to be in here somewhere, right? Green tea is rich in a certain amino acid known as L-theanine. Research has proved that this amino acid induces the production of brain waves. This will better your brain’s concentration while also loosening up the rest of your body. You likely already knew how easy it is to be healthy when you drink green tea. Now you know that it helps you to lift your moods too!

See, you don’t need to eat all that junk food when you are wanting to feel better! Test out these tips instead!
