Ever feel like your moods are out of whack?
According to
Woman's Day magazine, there are certain foods you can eat to tame your wild
moods. Being a college student means you get your fair, or unfair, share of
stress. In order to combat this stress, studies
show that eating just a small piece of dark chocolate a day helps to
reduce stress hormones like Cortisol and Catecholamine from flaring up, which
helps to decrease overall stress. I'm
sure you've woken up early for your 8 AM feeling super cranky because you only
got four hours of sleep the night before; we've all been there. If that's the
case, grab an apple and some peanut butter before class! The combination of
carbohydrate and protein work together to give you extra energy and make you
feel better throughout the day. Another effort to help you feel better and
happier throughout the day is to nosh on some whole grain cereal and low fat milk.
Studies show if you are feeling sad, this meal helps to produce serotonin in
your body. Serotonin helps to release that happy, calm feeling throughout your
body. In addition to regulating serotonin, eating this quick meal will also
help to boost your amounts of vitamin D, which in turn can help regulate your
mood as well. If these quick fixes are intriguing to you, check out the article
