Foods That Make You Happy

Mostly, people have been taught to think that “comfort” foods are not good for the body and must be avoided. If your comfort food is candy or junk food this holds true. Other times, though, comfort foods can be totally nutritious and it’s good for you to eat them. There are several foods that really can boost your moods when you eat them. If you are feeling a little bit down and you’re in need of a happiness pick me up, try a few of these.

Eggs, would you believe, are great for helping you fight depression. You must see to it, 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 elevate your mood. Eggs, particularly the egg yolks, are full of B vitamins. The B vitamin family can be great for boosting your mood. This is because they help improve the function of your neural transmitters, the parts of your brain that control your mood. Consume an egg and cheer up!

Make a trail mix out of seeds and/or nuts. Almonds, cashews, peanuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, and so on are all great for elevating your mood.

The more you have of it, the more pleasant you will feel. Not only that, nuts, particularly, are a fantastic protein source.

Cold water fish are wonderful for eating if you want to combat depression. Salmon, herring, tuna fish, mackerel, trout, etc, they’re all loaded with omega-3s and DHA. These are two substances that boost the quality and function of the gray matter in your brain. It’s true: eating a tuna fish sandwich can really help you overcome depression.

Grains can be good for fighting a terrible mood. Teff, barley, millet, quinoa, etc are all excellent for helping you feel happier. They help you feel full as well which can really help to make your mood better. Feeling famished can truly make you feel awful! The reason these grains are so great for your mood is that they are not hard for your stomach to digest.
