Food for depression: a new Depression Diet

A good way of dealing with depression is taking care for your daily food intake: depression diet. Proper food can be a real depression treatment!

Depression Diet: Eat plenty of FRESH FOOD

• fresh fish, three times a week or more. The best choice is pink salmon or fresh tuna or mackerel. They have a good influence on the serotonin production.

• healthy carbohydrates, like whole grain wheat bread, oat cereal (porridge oats), fresh fruits (citrus fruits, banana, pomegranate, apple, pineapple, blueberries) fresh vegetables (beans, peas, carrots, tomatoes). If you are on a low carbohydrate diet it can contribute to your miserable mood.

• 

  garlic has beside its many health improving properties a slight mood elevating effect. Eat daily one clove of freshly chopped garlic.










• The amino acid tryptophan has been found to relieve depression and natural sources include turkey, chicken, fish, peas, nuts, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds and peanut butter. Where possible eat them with carbohydrates, such as potatoes, pasta and rice, which facilitates the brain's uptake of tryptophan..

• seasonings, like cayenne pepper, rosemary, ginger, cardamom and basil have proved uplifting properties. Add them regularly and generously to your dishes.

 

 

 

 

 

Depression Diet: Cut back or even give up

• coffee or cola. Caffeine suppresses serotonin production and has been linked to depression.

• red meat, canned and frozen and junk food, sugar. Regular consumption of canned, frozen and junk food lead to heaviness and low, depressed mood, besides they are unhealthy for our system.
