Main Benefits of Healthy Eating
Adding tart cherry juice & kiwi fruits before bed both promote better sleep according to studies by American & Taiwanese colleges. (Tart cherry juice should be tart. By nature it doesn't taste good, don't be tempted to add sugar, or you'll sabotage its effect. You only need an ounce or two to get the effect.)
Your energy level throughout the day can feel like it goes up & down. This is usually caused by changes in blood sugar. By keeping your blood sugar steady (ex. Avoiding sugar highs) you can avoid annoying afternoon slumps. Start the day with a healthy breakfast that includes protein. Carbohydrates, especially those without fiber (ex. A white bread bagel) are turned quickly into sugars by the body, and they have about the same effect as regular sugar.
You can help even out sugar levels by adding fiber to every meal. Fiber slows down the body's conversion of carbohydrates into sugars, which results in steadier energy. When you need something that can add fiber to almost any food you already like to eat, reach for chia seeds. They don't alter the flavor of the food, they're tiny so you can just sprinkle them on food or mix them into drinks & the high level of soluble fiber on the exterior of the seed slows down the conversion of carbs into sugars.
Protein is also good for energy. Since the body doesn't store protein, it can only be used for energy. A protein rich breakfast (instead of the common carb & sugar heavy breakfast) like eggs, nuts, seeds, or a little lean meat can power you up for the day.
Going through a range of emotions throughout the day is normal, but if you feel down, irritable, blue, nervous or negative without any clear cause, you can sometimes combat feelings with healthy food. The brain runs on chemical signals, so why not give it what it needs to promote positivity?
Omega 3, vitamin D, the range of B vitamins & trace minerals like zinc, selenium & iodine all of these either protect parts of the brain (B12 shields mylien the coating on nerves & brain cells), help the thyroid (a gland that can influence moods if it's out of line) or provides the building blocks for a healthy brain (as the brain is composed of special fats) The star of the show for brain health is the pumpkin seed. It has Glutamate for anti-stress, tryptophan for anti-depression, zinc for positive immune system support & phytosterols to fight cholesterol deposits.
Protect your brain & its supportive systems with colorful fruits and vegetables. The general rule of maximizing healthy compounds like plant sterols, anti-oxidants & phyto-nutrients is "The brighter & more plentiful the colors - the better it will be". Choosing richly colored foods like dark plums (or berries), dark leafy greens, and bright fruits every day will help ensure you're getting powerful plant nutrients not only for better mood & brain health, but full-body care as well. Remember: supplementing can be a part of healthy eating too. Since not many foods have vitamin-d in them, and this vitamin is important to mental health, you may want to supplement if you suspect you're not getting enough.
