Boost your Mood thru Superfoods!

If your tired,crabby,or blue you can self-medicate with foods that can lift your mood without making you fat!While brisk walking ,exercise,meditation can also be helpful to a foul mood but the reality is..."Sometimes you just want to eat your troubles away.A big percentage of that is true, yes some evidence in scientific study show that some foods can alter your brain chemistry.Tired,Crabby,Blue?Fix it up!Without filling you out.

When you're Down for no particular reason or just the change of weather that deprived you to make some activity then maybe it's right time to have a toasted English muffin with a dollop of blueberry jam or you can also have a piece of whole wheat bread with some air-popped popcorns but pls skip protein foods such as chicken,turkey, ham , bacon & cheese

When you're Sleepy- then chances are you are irritable, intolerant,inattentive,depressed and more forgetful and'that' same signs can be seen on insomniacs but your problem might be at the table not in the bedroom as one author of the book Food& Mood said.

Cut caffeine in take, but unfortunately unknown to many that from hot chocolates,favorite teas, sodas/softdrinks,vitamin waters,and even energy drinks there's caffeine in it.It can all add up the whole day and will result to sleepless night and the next day is the terrible tired & sleepy one.You can switch to decaf , trade chocos, sparkling water or decaffeinated teas.But pls don't be surprised or worry if you'll experience headaches or some awful withdrawal effects rest assured that all is just temporary but then after 3-5 days you should start sleeping better and feeling more chipper.If you can't handle straight forwardly then you can try cutting caffeine gradually.
Do not Overload your stomach on dinner time-heavy meals can keep you awake at night time.Try eating bigger meals on breakfast and lunch but on dinner a feast of fruits or veggie salads or a graham biscuits with a scoop or two for an ice cream or may be a chicken sandwich with tomatoe slice & cucumber. While some experience alcohol made them sfeel sleepy but too much too close to bedtime is another story for this may interferes with your sleep.
