Top 5 Feel Good Foods
Health and fitness expert, Jo Williams shares her Top 5 Feel Good Foods
Eggs are a fantastic source of amino acids, omega-3 fatty acids, zinc and magnesium that help with anxiety. I love salmon omelette for lunch!
Ginger helps sharpen the brain and reduce anxiety. It also can affect serotonin levels. I love a ginger and lemon hot water every morning to help set up my body for the day.
3Dark Chocolate stimulates the production of endorphins, chemicals in the brain that create feelings of happiness. A small piece after lunch or for a snack is a nice treat.
Blueberries have a high content of antioxidants known as flavonoids, which help reduce stress. A handful a day added to a smoothie tastes delicious.
Quinoa is a wonderful complex carbohydrate and a complete protein which helps keep your blood sugar and your energy levels regular. This can help blood sugar spikes which can make you irritable. I cook with some stock with some vegetables and keep in the fridge for lunches.
