Foods That Prevent Depression and Mood Swings

A healthy balance of mood enhancing chemicals in the brain is necessary for the brain cells to function normally. If you suffer from mild depression, eating the following foods might help to relieve it.

Meat, fish, egg yolks, beans: These foods are high in iron. Iron is necessary to boost the production of chemical trasmitters in the brain.

Citrus fruits: They contain vitamin C which enhances iron absorption.

Dark green leafy vegetables: Such as cabbage and spinach. They contain folic acid which promotes the production of serotonin, a mood-lifting hormone.

Milk products, seeds, and nuts: These foods are rich in calcium. Calcium activates enzymes in the brain that are needed for normal cell activity.

Shellfish, whole grains: They contain magnesium which promotes normal cell activity in the brain.

Bananas, whole grain cereals: These are high in potassium. Low levels of this nutrient is usually present in depressed people.

Vitamin B6: Found in avocado, bananas, whole grain, dark leafy vegetables. Vitamin B6 helps convert the aminoacid tryptophan into serotonin.

Brewer’s yeast, fruits, milk, legumes: These foods contain inositol, a nutrient that helps regulate mood swings.

Peas, root vegetables, nuts: Contain zinc which may help prevent depression.
