What To Eat To Boost Your Mood

Dark Chocolate

If you need a quick pick-me-up, chocolate is usually the best choice for a sugar fix. The Psychiatric Times reports that dark chocolate has been found to reduce the risk of depression. You do not even need to eat a lot of it— around twelve grams of dark chocolate per day was enough to make a difference for the survey respondents. Chocolate is rich in flavonols that improve mood and condition and phenylethylamine, which increases the release of dopamine.
