Strenuous work, everyday life, obligations - all these are stressful factors that often lead to a state of stress and loss of energy. What foods can help fight stress and make you feel good?
Instructions
Step 1
Fresh apple. It acts as an antidepressant by energizing neurotransmitters, the cells responsible for our mood. And in combination with sesame seeds, it also provides an analgesic effect.
Step 2
Replace classic muesli for breakfast with oatmeal with fresh berries. This breakfast contains a huge amount of vitamins, which will help to actively start a busy work day. In addition, oatmeal is rich in serotonin, which is called the "happiness hormone".
Step 3
Warm water with lemon. This drink is considered to be a cleansing and stress-relieving drink for the whole day.
Step 4
Dark chocolate. Sometimes a little sweet is helpful, especially during tense moments. As they say, sweets are nourishment for the nerves. Eat a bar of chocolate, but always dark, high in cocoa. The antioxidants it contains raise endorphins and serotonin levels.
Step 5
Fatty red fish supplies the body with enough Omega 3 fatty acids, which create a protective wall against stress and related illness.
Step 6
Oysters for the spoiled consumer. Small shells contain huge amounts of selenium and zinc. These micronutrients are beneficial for the immune system and help the body to resist stress.
Step 7
Bread causes fermentation in the stomach, so it is best to skip it or reduce your intake.
Step 8
Beef also helps fight stress. Ideally, if the meat is from a village where cows feed exclusively on grass, such meat contains important antioxidants that scavenge free radicals in the body, slowing down the aging process and preventing numerous stress-related diseases.
