I'm an emotional eater. I eat when I'm sad or stressed or angry. But I don't usually choose the right foods. I want stuff high in salt or sugar.
If you eat right, then you'll actually feel better. Put the chips down! Here are foods that will actually boost your mood:
- BRAZIL NUTS contain antioxidents
- WILD-CAUGHT SALMON contain Omegas which are good for brain health
- PUMPKIN SEEDS OR PEPITAS rich in potassium, good for reducing stress
- TURMERIC reduces inflammation
- GROUND TURKEY contains tryptophan which converts to serotonin
- MANGOS vitamin B boosts energy, bioactive magnesium calms body and brain
