ANDROCOMVIRAL-There are times when at certain moments you intentionally want to eat certain types of foods that you hope can improve your mood. Or maybe you have experienced a certain event that makes your spirit fall, then you hope you can increase your enthusiasm as before, one of which can be done through food.
But unfortunately there are several types of food that can actually damage your mood and will certainly delay your hopes of being happy.
The following are some types of foods that can damage mood, including:
Potato chips
Potato chips are usually consumed as snacks that are consumed in casual events such as casual gatherings with friends or family, while reading books, while watching television and so on. Potato chips are usually fried using oil that is high in omega-6 fatty acids and can block omega-3 fatty acids that can produce a good "mood". As an alternative to potato chips, you can replace it by consuming almond snacks that can provide a calming or happy effect.
Soda
The high sugar content in carbonated drinks can cause your heart to beat more easily because of the increase in blood sugar levels where this condition is known as the "sugar rush". When blood sugar levels in your body increase, your body will produce insulin to balance it, but the impact of your body will become weak. With the condition of the body that was fresh and fit which turned weak, of course this will have an effect on your mood, for example, if you had a happy mood then your mood suddenly turned out to be bad.
Margarine
The high content of omega-6 fatty acids in margarine can increase insulin production in the body which can have an impact on your mood. As an alternative to margarine, you can use coconut oil or olive oil that is healthier when using oil for cooking.
Sugar or excess honey sugar
Sugar and honey have the same effect as soda where these foods are high in fructose which can increase blood sugar levels in very high amounts. Of course if you use too much sugar or honey in the food or drink you consume then the result will make your mood become unstable, on the other hand this can also trigger the risk of obesity.
Alan Aragon, M.Sc, who is a nutrition advisor for Men’s Health, provides advice to avoid consuming sugar based on the fact that sugar is an empty calorie or high in calories but does not contain nutrients.
"The human body has been created perfectly including the presence of a body system created to digest sugar," he said. "However you don't need to be afraid to consume dairy products, fruits and vegetables that contain natural sugars," said professor of nutrition at Harvard T.H. Chan's School of Public Health named Frank Hu, M.D., Ph.D.
Bagel Bread
During this time bagel bread was identical as a kind of healthy food even though there were also some who disagreed. However, not only because bagel bread is identical as a type of healthy food, then you consume it in excessive amounts.
Of the many composition ingredients of bagel bread, there are cheese and margarine which are high in calorie content and of course if you eat bagels in large quantities it means that there will be many calories that will enter your body.
In comparison, in 1 plain bagel bread (without cheese and margarine) there is a calorie content of 400 kcal, of course if added with cheese and margarine then there will be many calories piled up on the bagel bread.
Peanuts
Snacks like peanuts that have a variety of flavor choices usually use herbs made from monosodium glutamate (MSG). Excessive consumption of monosodium glutamate (MSG) can trigger body conditions such as lethargy, migraines and those who are allergic usually experience shortness of breath. Therefore it is recommended to replace peanut snacks that are spiced with almonds or walnuts which are high in omega-3.
Sweet potato
For some people, serving sweet potatoes as a snack food that is either boiled or baked is known as a type of healthy food. There are times when the sweet potato served feels less sweet until it is finally added with additional sugar to give it a sweet taste.
Giving additional sugar is what can trigger blood pressure to increase, increase depression and trigger the risk of Alzheimer's disease. Thus if you want to serve sweet potatoes as a snack food that you enjoy together, you should not need to add it with sugar.
Egg whites
There are times when some people prefer to consume egg white instead of consuming egg yolks which are considered high in cholesterol content.
The fact is that egg yolks contain several nutrients that can regulate the health of brain cells and regulate the mood of happiness, such as vitamin B12, vitamin D, omega-3 acids and folate.
Smoothies
At a glance, smoothies drinks look like a healthy type of drink, but if you eat smoothies that use a lot of sugar, this drink can be a drink that is harmful to your health.
The sugar content in smoothies is known to trigger obesity, depression, diabetes, disrupt brain performance.
Even if you still want to consume smoothies, it is advisable to choose smoothies that don't use sugar.
Soy yogurt
The content of omega-6 fatty acids in soy yogurt is known to inhibit mood even though on the other hand there are actually a number of fats in the human brain. When you consume the wrong type of fat, the result will be a disruption around your brain such as uncontrolled emotions, especially if the yogurt you consume uses added sugar ingredients.
Various types of foods that have been mentioned above in addition to reducing the mood of happiness can also accumulate toxins in the body and make blood sugar unstable.
Thus, if you want to enjoy snacks at a casual event, it is advisable to eat snacks made from foods that are high in fiber, do not use additional sugar ingredients and do not need to consume excessive amounts.
