Do you know that what you eat can affect your mood? Complex carbs are great mood-enhancing foods as they cause the release of serotonin in the brain (that is the 'happy hormone'). 'Complex' in this case means whole wheat breads, brown rice and cereals. Beans and legumes are also great but often ignored! The carbs that we often turn to (muffins, cookies, bagels, tea biscuits, etc) are high in sugar, which causes a spike in the bloodstream after digestion. You want to aim for foods that keep the sugar level in your blood stable. Nuts such as almonds, brazil nuts, and hazel nuts are a good source of protien and magnesium. There are usually lots of those around this time of year, though they often require some elbow grease to get into!
Perhaps you can keep this information in mind as you snack your way through the upcoming holidays? Need to stay healthy and in a good mood at this challenging time of year!!
