It is not a secret for anyone that the state of human health, his working capacity, and life expectancy directly depend on the proper nutrition. But few know that our mood depends not only on the foot from which we got up today, but also on what we ate. There are products that can lift even the most bad mood and at the same time do not affect your figure.

Bakery, sweet food and happiness concept. Cupcakes blue eyes

So, let's list antidepressant products that are able to create a great mood for us and improve our well-being:

1. A fish

Fatty fish (herring, salmon, cod, salmon) is very rich in omega-3 fatty acids, fish also contains the amino acid tryptophan, which helps our body release serotonin, a good mood hormone.

In addition to the above, fatty fish has a large amount of vitamin B 6, improves mood and strengthens the immune system. Fish is preferably consumed at least three or four times a week for 100 – 200 g. Daily consumption rate from 100 to 200 g, in combination with vegetables.

2. Bright vegetables and fruits

Vegetables with a bright color: beets, eggplants, carrots, sweet peppers, persimmons, tangerines, oranges, and also have the ability to elevate mood.

Fruits and vegetables of saturated colors are composed of substances bioflavonoids that improve blood circulation in the brain. As a result of their use, the brain receives more oxygen, you begin to feel noticeably better, and this naturally increases your mood.

The recommended amount of fruits and vegetables - 200-500 g per day.

3. Meat

With a little nervous stress - this is an excellent remedy for depression. Meat contains proteins that contain the amino acid tryptophan.

The required amount of meat - 100-200 g per day.

4. Bananas

They are an indispensable source of natural serotonin. In addition, bananas contain vitamin B6, which is necessary for lifting the mood. In addition, bananas are enriched with an alkaloid, harmaine, capable of evoking a feeling of euphoria. So this fruit is useful to eat with chronic fatigue and just a bad mood.

Don't overuse. The norm is 1-2 bananas per day.

5. Nuts

All nuts, like fatty fish, are a source of omega-3 fatty acids, which can help keep brain cells working properly and help relieve symptoms of depression. In addition, nuts contain the already known amino acid tryptophan and a mood-boosting vitamin B6. They also contain a mineral called selenium, which is essential for a good mood.

It is worth knowing that the indicator of selenium in the blood decreases as the body ages annually by 7% after 60 years and by 25% after 75. Therefore, doctors advise older people to eat more nuts. You can eat from 30 to 50 g of this product per day.

6. Eggs

The eggs contain essential fatty acids and vitamins A, E, D, not to mention tryptophan, as well as carotenes and vitamins of group B, the lack of which can lead to depression. So even an ordinary steam omelette can improve the mood.

You can eat no more than 6 eggs per week.

7. Bunting and buckwheat

Like meat, oatmeal and buckwheat are composed of tryptophan amino acid. Even these foods contain carbohydrates, which, slowly absorbed, normalize blood sugar levels and reduce the feeling of hunger.

Elevated or lowered sugar levels entirely affects the mood, because it affects the level of insulin in the blood. And insulin performs the function of transporting tryptophan to the brain, where it is already processed into serotonin.

The daily rate of use of cereals per day from 150 to 250,

There are still a large number of products that can normalize our emotional state. I listed the most effective.

Eat fully and correctly, and you will always be in a good mood, not only physiologically, but simply looking at yourself in the mirror.
