1. Whole Grains — carbohydrates increase the brain chemical serotonin, which is a mood enhancer.
2. Greens — food that is chockfull of the B vitamin and folate (leafy green vegetables, beans, citrus fruits) may help ward off the doldrums of depression.
3. Protein —for instance, turkey which is high in tryptophan, an amino acid thought to have a positive effect on stress because it helps the brain produce feel-good chemicals. Tryptophan is important for increasing your brain’s levels of serotonin, norepinephrine, and dopamine.
