Eggs, you may be surprised to discover, are terrific at combating depression. Just make sure that you don’t toss out the yolk. Every time you want to cheer yourself up, the egg yolk is the most important part of the egg. Eggs, especially the egg yolks, are full of B vitamins. B vitamins can genuinely help you elevate your mood. This is because they help improve the function of your neural transmitters, the components of your brain that control your mood.

Make a few trail mix of nuts or seeds. Almonds, cashews, peanuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, etc are all good for elevating your mood. This is possible because these foods are rich in magnesium which promotes serotonin production.

Nuts, along with bettering your mood, can be a superb protein source.
Cold water fish are good if you wish to be in a better mood. Tuna, trout, mackerel, herring and wild salmon are all high in omega-3s and DHA.

These foods are easier to digest than others which helps promote a rise in your blood glucose which in turn kicks up your mood to a happier place.
