Spinach and some dark green leafy vegetables are the main sources of magnesium, such as kale. " Spinach is also rich in another antihypertensive nutrient: vitamin C.

Self-esteem frustration and depression are both related to low serotonin levels. 5- hydroxytryptamine is an organic substance derived from tryptamine acid.

Mood-stabilizing food-the taste of mom
When encountering setbacks in work or life, coping attitudes can be divided into overcoming and giving up. Those who can break through the tight encirclement and go forward bravely have commendable courage for the obstacles that stand in front of us, and what supports this courage is "the smell of mother."
Speaking of the smell of mother, its definition is easy to be misunderstood. The so-called "mom's taste" here refers to mom's "unique flavor dishes", not traditional foods such as noodles or braised beef noodles. In other words, it refers to those who are deeply impressed by the flavor of home-cooked dishes from childhood to adolescence, especially those dishes full of happiness. Many dishes cooked by my mother have this taste. No matter how expensive the processed food is, it is difficult to replace this memorable taste.
This nostalgic food or dish can be called "emotionally stable food". Because eating such dishes will stabilize your mood. Especially when encountering setbacks, eating this stable food can give you the courage to overcome difficulties and setbacks. It can be said that people who can eat emotionally stable food are the lucky ones on the journey of life.
Now most adults used to have this kind of stable food, but with the progress of civilization and the standardization of diet, the taste of mother has been gradually diluted. It is doubtful whether modern new human beings who have grown up in this environment can face setbacks in the future. From this point of view, when raising children, it can be said that it is a subject that new and new human mothers must work hard to impress children by making all kinds of unique flavors by hand as much as possible.
At present, it is very convenient to process food, including hamburgers, fried chicken pieces, curry rice, beef noodles, quick-frozen jiaozi, steamed buns, dumplings and steamed dumplings. There is nothing wrong with the prepared food itself. The problem lies in the life of partial eclipse, especially all meals are made with this processed food, and there is a nutritional deviation.
The so-called "steady food" means that when you encounter setbacks and depression in your work or life, what kind of food and flavor you eat can be improved and overcome; This "stable food" is "the taste of mother".
Here, I suggest that housewives wash their hands and make soup and cook some special foods. Try it first, and then give it to my husband and children to see if it has this effect. If they have it, keep it and do it once in a while to impress their families. This is a stable force and a source of family happiness. Never ignore the latest research that shows that children's emotional instability is related to diet.
Less calcium in the diet will inhibit the excitement of brain nerves. There is enough calcium in the brain, which is easy to maintain emotional stability. Calcium deficiency can lead to emotional anxiety, irritability and general weakness.
Excessive intake of sugar in the diet, such as desserts and drinks, raises blood sugar in the body. In order to lower blood sugar, the pancreas must secrete a lot of insulin, which causes excessive secretion of pararenin, thus causing irritability, anger and emotional instability.
B vitamins are deficient in sugar and take in too much. If they want to become calories, they must take in B vitamins. If there is a lack of B vitamins in the diet, it will lead to high mood and out of control.
People with vitamin C deficiency often consume vitamin C when they are nervous. If vitamin C in the diet is insufficient, brain function will be reduced and mood will be unstable.
Emotional control diet is conducive to scientific health.
Dietary mood refers to the emotional state maintained by the eater during eating, that is to say, the eater keeps a quiet and happy mood for a certain period of time before and after eating, which is helpful for the digestion and absorption of food. This kind of mood is calm and gentle, comfortable and pleasant. Sun Simiao, a medical sage in the Tang Dynasty, once said: "Anger leads to anger, joy leads to anger, sadness leads to anger, shock leads to anger, and thinking leads to anger stagnation." When the human body is in a state of abnormal qi and blood, the digestive function will be affected to some extent. Probably everyone has had this experience. When the mood fluctuates, even if there are all kinds of delicious food on the table, I don't know what it tastes like.
Diet can bring physical pleasure. Arabs hold banquets. Before eating, everyone sings and dances around the bonfire. When eating, they have a particularly good appetite. People in China drink and laugh at the banquet, and eat the atmosphere.
On the contrary, diet can cause physical discomfort and emotional fluctuations. For example, Su Shi, a great writer in the Song Dynasty, was put in prison because of his outspoken crimes, and agreed with his son that if there was a dangerous letter, he would blindly add fish when delivering food to the prison. My son forgot to tell his family about it when he went out. When delivering meals at home, Dongpo specially made a fish that Dongpo loved to eat and sent it to the prison. When Dongpo saw the fish, he thought that the disaster of killing was coming and he was very frightened. Later, after the mountain prison, he never ate fish for life.
In feudal times, the night before the execution of the condemned man, there was a particularly rich dinner and a pot of wine, but as soon as the prisoner saw the food and wine delivered, he knew that his end was coming. Most people will burst into tears, and few people can swallow it. This kind of emotional response accompanied by the process of feeling is called the "emotional tone" of feeling by psychologists.
In order to keep a good mood when eating, it is necessary to study people's psychological state when eating. It's not easy for people attending a banquet to sit in the best mental state all the time. In order to keep the guests in the best state during the banquet, we should pay attention to various factors that affect people's psychological state. If the banquet is held on time, the banquet environment is beautiful, clean and comfortable, the music is beautiful, the dishes are delicious, the shape is beautiful and moving, and the colors are rich and colorful. , so that the eater always maintains a good mood and a strong appetite. Creating a good eating environment and maintaining a happy eating mood are very important for everyone's health and longevity. As a eater, we should try our best to get rid of bad emotions during eating, so as not to affect the digestion and absorption of food, the taste and elegance of food, and the physical and mental health.
Music is an indispensable additive to food. What kind of music to choose at the party is very particular. Music experts believe that soft and brisk music can arouse quiet and happy emotions and is conducive to the digestion and absorption of food. At many important banquets, light music, such as serenade and waltz, is played, while at the state banquet in China, elegant national music is played.
