Young woman eating strawberries
Did you know stressed is desserts spelled backward? That is why I have no shame in binging on ice cream after work. However, when I gained love handles the situation became problematic. There are several food items that can easily solve this. Here is a list of them that is beneficial to mental health and not likely to put extra pounds on you.
How: Dark chocolate contains the components polyphenols and flavonols. Studies have shown that these components of dark chocolate fight the stress hormones cortisol and catecholamines, leaving a person less stressed when consuming dark chocolate.
How: High in folate, which supports your brain with memory and mental stability.
How: The alpha-linolenic acid and omega-3 fatty acids are abundant in walnuts, and help decrease cortisol levels. Cortisol is a prominent hormone in stress.
How: Strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, blackberries, etc. are all high in vitamin C. Vitamin C keeps blood pressures low and calm.

Put that scoop of ice cream down and pick up something from this list. Stay healthy and stress-free!
