Many of us believe that comfort foods are terrible for us and that we need to avoid them. At times, if the comfort food is a sugary food or another junk food, this is true. Otherwise, comfort foods may be really nourishing and good for you. There are a number of foods that, when you eat them, can better your mood. When you feel a little down and need an emotional pick-me-up, try a couple of these.

Make a trail mix from seeds and/or nuts. Your mood can be raised by eating peanuts, almonds, cashews, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, and so on. This is possible since these foods are rich in magnesium which promotes your production of serotonin. Serotonin is a feel-good chemical substance that tells the brain how to feel at any given time. The more of it in your brain, the happier you’ll feel. Not just that but nuts, specifically, are a great source of protein.

As you can see, you don’t need to eat all that junk food when you are wanting to feel better! Test out these suggestions instead!
