Begin Your Day With A Serotonin Fix

Serotonin helps to regulate our mood, behaviour and memory. To help your brain in producing a high amount of serotonin, you need to ensure that your body will have an ample supply of amino acids. Try including plenty of the following natural foods in your diet; cashews, legumes, lentils, whole eggs (free range), grass fed red meat, tofu, tempeh, chia seeds, organic cheese, buckwheat and oats.

Bathe in the Sun

A low amount of Vitamin D in the body is often associated with Seasonal Affective Disorder; a condition wherein people who are experiencing long, dark winters are under a state of depression.  In other words, it’s harder to be happy without sunshine! Although Vitamin D is found in liver, egg yolks and some full fat dairy products, it’s difficult to get our daily dose without sunshine or a supplement to help.

Get Moving

There’s few faster ways to increase your feel-good chemicals than with exercise. Movement floods your body with endorphins that boost mood, regulate sleep and clear the mind. Try adding in 30mins a day of movement you enjoy- a brisk walk, yoga or a bike ride are a good ways to start.

Indulge in Dark Chocolate

The luscious taste of chocolate can make us feel good. Good quality dark chocolate is also a rich source of plant chemicals that offer powerful mood boosting properties. These include anandamide, theobromine, tryptophan and serotonin; some of the same molecules that your brain produces when you’re in love!

Nordic countries have a food culture closely linked with nature – their cuisine is all about keeping food pure, seasonal, local and fresh. Good health starts with a balanced, healthy diet- so do your body a favor and invest in delicious, good for you heart foods like Omega-3 pork!
