Many of us try to restore our shaky mental balance with fast food or sweets. The problem is that “eating away” stress almost immediately affects our weight and, accordingly, our appearance.
However, among the products there are those that not only reduce the effects of stress, but also do not harm the figure.
Oranges
Oranges are known to contain a lot of vitamin C. It, in turn, provides protection against viruses and helps to normalize blood pressure, and also protects us from overwork and bad mood. Therefore, you can safely eat a couple of citrus fruits a day - as a stress prevention measure.
Salmon
This fish contains a large amount of zinc, B vitamins and omega-3 fatty acids, which our body needs in stressful situations. They not only improve mood, but also reduce cravings for sweets.
Sardines and trout, by the way, can boast a similar effect.
Peanut
We will not talk about the large number of biologically active compounds that are part of peanuts now. Instead, we will say that peanuts stimulate the production of serotonin, have a beneficial effect on cognitive functions of the brain and reduce the body's response to stress.
Turkey
Thanks to its composition, or more precisely B vitamins, magnesium and polyunsaturated fatty acids, irritability and fatigue, which are frequent companions of nervous exhaustion, are reduced.
