Before you jump to Banana Spice Muffins recipe, you may want to read this short interesting healthy tips about Use Food to Elevate Your Mood.

Mostly, people have been conditioned to believe that “comfort” foods are terrible for the body and should be avoided. Often, if your comfort food is essentially candy or other junk foods, this is true. Other times, though, comfort foods can be altogether nutritious and it’s good for you to eat them. There are some foods that really can boost your moods when you eat them. If you seem to feel a little bit down and you’re in need of a happiness pick me up, try some of these.

Make some trail mix of nuts or seeds. Almonds, cashews, peanuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, etcetera are all good for elevating your mood. This is because seeds and nuts have lots of magnesium which raises your brain’s serotonin levels. Serotonin is the “feel good” chemical that tells your brain how you feel at all times. The more of it in your brain, the happier you’ll feel. Not only that but nuts, particularly, are a terrific protein food source.

Now you realize that junk food isn’t necessarily what you need to eat when you wish to help your moods get better. Try a couple of of these hints instead.
