Nuts

Healthy fats and protein in nuts and seeds may boost energy and mood. They include minerals and vitamins that are important for good health.

Magnesium-rich almonds, walnuts, and pumpkin seeds may relieve muscular tension and promote sleep. Omega-3 fatty acids decrease inflammation and boost mood. They also contain vitamin E, an antioxidant that protects against stress.

Nuts and seeds may help lower blood sugar, making them a good choice for diabetics. Their fiber content aids digestion and bowel function.

Nuts and seeds are diverse and nutritious. They may be snacked on, added to smoothies or cereal, or sprinkled over yogurt or salad. Baking with them is a healthier alternative to refined sugars and oils.

 

Dark Chocolate

Dark chocolate is cocoa-based. It reduces tension and is abundant in nutrients. Cocoa beans contain flavonoids.

Serotonin and dopamine synthesis by flavonoids improve mood. Dark chocolate reduces stress and anxiety because these neurotransmitters regulate mood.

Dark chocolate contains antioxidants that protect the body from stress. Dark chocolate antioxidants prevent inflammation and free radical damage. In addition, dark chocolate is versatile and nutritious. It may be eaten alone, in smoothies, or baked. Note that high-cocoa dark chocolate is healthier than milk or white chocolate.

  2. Hello!
    Think fish should be eaten more than once a week.Beets are good for the blood – all types of vegetables- asparagus, bitter greens like dandelions ( for seasonal cleanse in the springtime).
    I still eat well-sourced meat from time to time for iron it provides.
    Happy Eating!
