Mood foods are important because they can they pull you out of that depression you’re in AND help you lose weight. Depression, aggression, hyperactivity and other moods are influenced by tryptophan intake, an amino acid found in foods. By regulating the foods you eat, you can control your mood. How can these mood foods help you lose weight? Carbs raise your blood tryptophan levels and make you feel good but add weight. Instead, eat higher-tryptophan foods to raise your blood tryptophan levels and reduce your need for carbs. This book analyzes a food nutrient database for foods that are low- and high-tryptophan, thereby providing you with a natural means to control your mood through the food you eat. Some popular foods could be depressing your mood (yogurt, hamburger), whereas others could be elevating it (mozzarella, sesame). Use this book to learn which foods affect your mood and then design a diet that will help you lose weight and feel good. See the preview. Or email me - [email protected]
