Foods that will make you happy

Love that happy feel, where the world looks pretty? Attitude is the first step, a sense of seeing the half glass full. Here are some foods that can help as well:

• Dark Chocolate or even better, raw cocoa nibs; Coco is rich in magnesium, which helps relax and enjoy a nice quiet mood.
• Sprouts – can give you some high. They are so alive and waiting to burst out into full form, that when you take in some of that crunch, you get the extra power of potential (rich in folic acid and soluble fiber)
• Dark leafy greens will boost your energy and immune system, giving you a sense of power and strength. Eat them as raw as possible. Consider Kale your new best friend (rich in folic acid and soluble fiber).
• Mung beans, sunflower seeds, asparagus, pineapple, and bananas can lift your spirits, as they are rich with tryptophan an amino acid converted by the body into the feel-good chemical serotonin.
• Brown rice is warming sweet and grounding. Chew well. (Rich in B vitamins.
• Wild salmon and sardines (rich in omega 3 fats and vitamin D)
• Ground flaxseeds (rich soluble fiber, omega 3 fats, and folic acid)
• Not a food but is natural and works too: St John's wort is the best natural antidepressant.

And remember. Nothing beats a smile a day. Try a big smile every few hours as you eat some yummy food.
