7 Foods That Help With Stress and Anxiety

March 6, 2015 in Food

If your goal is to overcome stress and anxiety without the use of medications, then you will need to make some lifestyle changes. One of those lifestyle changes includes eating the right foods to help lower your stress and anxiety.

oysters

Oysters– Oysters are ideal for reducing anxiety because they are loaded with zinc. Research has shown that those who suffer from anxiety actually have an imbalance of zinc and copper. If you eat foods with lots of copper but lower levels of zinc, this may lead to anxiety symptoms.

chamomile

Chamomile tea– Chamomile tea has been shown to lessen stress in only a couple of weeks. This is because chamomile tea is mild, soothing and has a calming effect.

Organ meats– Organ meats are a great source of healthy nutrients to help with stress and anxiety. Two of the best nutrients are Vitamin D and zinc. In addition, organ meats such as liver also have a great deal of Vitamin B.

avocados

Avocados– Avocados are really great helping with anxiety and stress. Avocados are rich in potassium and potassium helps to lower blood pressure naturally. In addition, avocados also a substantial amount of monounsaturated fats and B Vitamins that helps with brain health.

dark_chocolate

Dark Chocolate– Nothing beats stress like some dark chocolate. The Journal of Psychopharmacology published a placebo-controlled study that showed people who drank around one and a half ounces of dark chocolate each day were calmer than those who didn’t.

asparagus

Asparagus– Asparagus is a green vegetable that contains a great deal of folic acid. Folic acid has been shown to help stabilize mood.

almonds

Almonds– Nothing beats stress and anxiety better than a handful of almonds. Almonds are packed with Vitamin B2 as well as Vitamin E. Also, almonds also contain a great deal of zinc and magnesium as well. You may think that almonds are high in fat but the fact is that the majority of that fat is unsaturated.

Siri, remove my makeup...Siri, are you there?!!!

Ok, so that is not possible yet. 😂 But dang, you guys know I love trying new masks and peels. And after I removed my makeup, I tried out this AHAVA PURIFYING MUD Mask. 

No fillers, no fluff, no surprises in this product.  It's vegan and paraben free.  It feels so light on the skin and when it dries it almost feels like you can feel the goodness soak into your skin.  You only leave it on for two minutes and then wash it off. My skin felt so fresh and clean after this mask. Then, I applied the Ahava moisturizer and my skin felt so nice. 

If you want to try this mask or moisturizer for yourself or if you want to check out their other products, check out their website and use the code:  YOUR30 for 30% off site wide.  No need to thank me! Treat yourself, yo.

#ad Not gonna lie, it was a little windy today (60 #ad Not gonna lie, it was a little windy today (60 mph) but I had to show off my locks.  I have been using @thebeachwaver good vibes moisturizing shampoo and conditioner for well over a month now and I can totally tell a difference.  I freakin LOVE these products because...

 This is made of all the good stuff.  Coconut oil, Tahitian monoi flower and..wait for it...Shea butter.  So the smell is amazing and my hair is so soft after treating my hair to this vegan goodness. If you fall in love with it like I did, beachwaver had a subscription service and you can have your hair are delivered right to your door.  You can also use my code MAMASITAWAVE at checkout for an additional 10% off.  I’ll do another hair shot next month so you can see the difference.  #beachwaveshair #beachwaverbabe #goodvibes #hairproductsonline #subscribenow #subscribeservice #beachwaverbabes #hairtools #mondayyy97 #hairproductreview #momlifebestlife #hairlove #shampooandconditioner #veganshampoo #independentwomenknow #veganconditioner #goodvibestribe #ad
