Foods That Cause Depression
Alcohol
Alcohol
is not only injurious to the liver, but also to the overall health. It triggers
depression too. Therefore, consumption of alcoholic drinks is strictly not
recommended for those who are the victim of depression and related disorders.
Stimulants
Stimulants
might give you instant energy, but beware; they may any time become a root
cause for the condition of depression. High-caffeine intake triggers anxiety,
depression and insomnia too. Therefore, tea and coffee should be had in
moderation, if you want to stay away from depression.
Processed
Foods
Processed
foods are a strict no-no, if you are suffering from anxiety related disorders
and sleeplessness, because such foods might trigger depression. Heavily
processed foods are laden with sodium, which adds to depression. Therefore,
fast food, canned food and pre-packaged dehydrated food should not be consumed.
Stay away from white bread, pasta (made with eggs), white rice, and other
similar foods.
Foods
Blocking Serotonin & Selenium
Low
levels of serotonin can lead to a chemical imbalance in the brain, thereby
causing depression. And if you are already suffering from bouts of depression,
then it is recommended that you prevent consuming foods that are likely to
block serotonin levels. Unhappy feelings are also caused due to the low level
of selenium, lack of folic acid being a major factor for depression.
Researches
indicate that consumption of junk food is more likely to cause depression
compared to people who eat healthy foods. Sweetened desserts, chocolates, fried
food, processed meat, refined grains, high-fat dairy products, and condiments
are some foods that trigger depression, when consumed for prolonged periods.
Modern
Foods
Diet
of a person is known to show a strong association with depression. What people
preferred to eat some fifty years back, have now been replaced with an
altogether different list of food items. While the diet of people in old days
included natural sources of omega-3, the present generation has replaced them
with foods containing high levels of omega-6. That, however, doesn’t by any way
means to cut short on omega-6 food in the diet. It, instead, means that a
reduction in the consumption of omega-3 foods is another cause for increased
levels of depression.
To
prevent yourself from getting depressed and tensed too often, keep away from
these foods and switch to healthy eating for a happier life.
Foods
That Help Cope With Anxiety And Depression
(LIVESTRONG.COM)
It
is normal for a person to go through low points on and off as this is part of
the body’s normal bio-rhythm. However, if you are an emotional yo-yo, it’s time
for you to take a look at your lifestyle and diet. There are many triggers that
could be behind depression and anxiety attacks. While extreme mood swings and
depression could call for medical attention and therapy, there are often times
that the food we eat has a bearing on our behavior and what we feel. The good
news is that there are ways to stabilize moods by choosing foods that fight
anxiety and depression. The brain produces a chemical called serotonin, which
has a calming effect on your nervous system and body. Therefore, it is
important to have good nutrition in order to fight anxiety and depression.
Foods That Fight Anxiety And Depression
Carbohydrates
2. Any Good Ways to Get Rid of Depression?
Carbohydrates
Carbohydrates
are linked very strongly to production of serotonin. Therefore, increase your
intake of foods rich in carbohydrates. Foods rich in carbohydrates are yam,
potatoes, wheat, rice and other cereals and starchy roots. However, keep in
mind that there are some people who get more depressed after consuming white
rice. So monitor your food consumption and your moods.
Vitamin
B6
Vitamin
B6 is a good source of selenium (an antioxidant mineral), which helps soothe
the body. Some foods that are rich in Vitamin B6 are poultry food, groundnuts,
beans, peas, fish, eggs, and dark green vegetables.
Vitamin
C
Folate
plays a huge role in the production of serotonin and Vitamin C is a good source
of this. Foods rich in vitamin C include spinach, peas, legumes, oranges and
other citrus fruits, However, be careful not to overdo on the Vitamin C, since
excess consumption has an adverse effect on the body.
Vitamin
E
Vitamin
E is an antioxidant, a low level of which can lead to heightened anxiety and
depression. Foods rich in Vitamin E include oils such as canola oil (use with
moderation since it is high in fat), chickpeas, wheat germ, oats, green leafy
vegetables, sprouted beans, egg yolks, seeds and nuts.
Food
Rich In Omega-3 Fatty Acids
Foods
that are rich in omega-3 fatty acids help prevent heart diseases, stroke and
cancers, apart from stabilizing mood swings. Salmon and mackerel are rich in
omega-3 fatty acids and contain selenium. Other sources of omega-3 fatty acids
are seeds, nuts and flax oils.
Fluid
Intake
Water
is the most important thing that you can take in that will help alleviate
depression and anxiety. When your body is dehydrated, your body is affected in
many ways, ranging from problems with liver functionality as well as brain
impairment. Do not try to substitute your water intake with coffee, tea or soft
drinks since they themselves need to be flushed out of your system by water. Also,
they have side effects that are not very pleasant.
