HAPPINES DIET FOR GOOD WEIGHT

Happiness is not a constant and depends on many factors. However, we can be certain that unhealthy diet leads to depression. If we balance our daily food, we will help our mind to fight depressive moods.

The excessive intake of saturated fat and sugar cause damages to our body and mind. The limited consumption of fruits and vegetables has the same effect. The insufficient supply of omega-3 unsaturated fatty acids results in depression and memory loss. So, if we want to reach our good weight, we have to reconsider our daily food. It is a well known fact that fresh fruits and vegetables are vital for our health. Unfortunately, figures show that we have reduced the consumption of greeneries with 30 %. Even more, we consume about 50% of the amount of fish and seafood that we used to. How can we expect to feel happy and perfectly fit? The over consumption of sugar and saturated fatty acids does not help us attain our best weight, either. The result is gloominess plus weight excess. In addition to concentrating on positive thoughts, we offer the following ‘Happiness Diet’. Stick to the diet for 3 to 7 days. Although not a cure for depression, it elevates the mood. The foods are rich in vitamins B and E, and substances possessing antidepressant effects.

Happiness Diet

Breakfast: 1 egg, 80 grams of low fat cheese, 1 slice of whole grain bread, and 1 cup of mint tea.

Morning snack: a small bowl of fruit salad with low fat yogurt and nuts.
Lunch: 100 grams of turkey fillet, boiled vegetables, cucumber and tomato salad sprinkled with cheese and olive oil.
Afternoon snack: 30 grams of natural chocolate.
Dinner: 300 grams of grilled fish, 1 banana.
Before sleep: a cup of St. John`s wort tea.

Instead of keeping strictly to the diet, we can just consume more ‘happiness foods’: low fat meat, chicken, liver, fish, eggs, low fat milk and dairy products, carrots, peppers, tomatoes, celery, peas, bananas, citrus fruits, kiwi, blueberries, beans, lentils, wheat germs, nuts, rosemary, basil, thyme, mint, and natural chocolate.

Eat frequently in small portions. The long intervals between meals result in low blood sugar, cravings for unhealthy food, and weight excess.

We can reach our best weight by inviting happiness in our plates!
