Superfoods for improved mood

 

Powerful superfoods that can help boost your mood and energy.

Kale. A powerful, leafy green antioxidant that helps fight infection and is an excellent detoxifier for your liver. Kale is rich in vitamin K, vitamin C, iron and calcium.

Cinnamon. Can help stabilize your blood sugar, which helps you control your weight by slowing digestion, and reducing hunger. May also lower LDL.

Chia Seeds. Chia seeds are packed with omega-3 fatty acids, iron, protein, B12, calcium, and potassium. 

Goji Berries. Goji berries contain fatty acids and B vitamins, which are essential to keep your energy up and relieve stress. They are also rich in vitamin A, which helps keep vision strong. Great immune system booster.

Stevia. An excellent all-natural alternative to artificial sweeteners (like Splenda and Sweet and Low). Stevia is calorie-free and does not cause your blood sugar to jump like artificial sweeteners do. This can help control your weight by preventing that craving of sugar caused by regular sweeteners.

Apple Cider Vinegar. This is a good cleanser for the digestive tract as it promotes digestion. Apple cider vinegar works to replenish the body’s alkaline levels, which then restores hormonal balance.

Coconut Water. Low in calories and has tons of electrolytes. Coconut water is a natural hydrator for the body. It also helps to balance the body’s pH level which can help keep your skin clear.

Oat Bran. Oat bran is rich in fiber and helps lower cholesterol.
