Turn to Food to Elevate Your Mood

In general, people have been conditioned to believe that “comfort” foods are terrible for the body and must be avoided. However, if your comfort food is candy or junk food this is true. Otherwise, comfort foods could be really healthy and good for you. A number of foods honestly do improve your mood when you consume them. When you feel a little down and are needing an emotional boost, test out a couple of these.

Eggs, you might be amazed to find out, are wonderful at combating depression. You need to make sure, however, that what you make includes the egg yolk. The egg yolk is the part of the egg that matters most in terms of helping you cheer up. Eggs, the yolks particularly, are loaded with B vitamins. The B vitamin family can be fantastic for boosting your mood. This is because the B vitamins help your neural transmitters–the parts of your brain that affect your mood–function better. Eat an egg and be happy!

Put together a trail mix out of seeds and/or nuts. Almonds, cashews, peanuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, and so on are all helpful for improving your mood. This is possible because these foods are high in magnesium which raises your production of serotonin. Serotonin is known as the “feel good” substance that our body produces and it tells your brain how you should be feeling day in and day out. The higher your serotonin levels, the happier you will feel. Not only that but nuts, specifically, are a terrific protein source.

Cold water fish are excellent if you want to feel better. Tuna, trout, mackerel, herring and wild salmon are all high in omega-3s and DHA. These are two things that really help the grey matter in your brain function a lot better. It’s true: eating a tuna fish sandwich can earnestly raise your mood.

It’s not hard to drive away your bad mood when you are eating grains. Quinoa, millet, teff and barley are all truly wonderful for helping boost your happiness levels. They fill you up better and that can help you with your moods too. Feeling famished can be a real downer! These grains can improve your mood since it’s easy for your body to digest them. They are simpler to digest than other foods which helps raise your blood sugar levels and that, in turn, improves your mood.

Green tea is really great for your mood. You were sure green tea had to be in this article somewhere, right? Green tea is rich in a specific amino acid called L-theanine. Studies have discovered that this amino acid basically induces brain waves. This helps improve your mental energy while at the same time relaxing the rest of your body. You knew that green tea helps you feel a lot healthier. Now you are aware that green tea can help you be happier also!

So you see, you don’t need to eat junk food or foods that are not good for you to feel better! Try a few of these instead!
