3. Oatmeal
Oatmeal is the perfect breakfast for those who suffer from depression, especially when it is combined with treatment. Consuming oatmeal regularly can help increase the levels of serotonin in the brain. So, if you want to relieve feeling of anxiety, go for oatmeal! Plus, oatmeal can lower cholesterol levels, relieve constipation, and benefit your skin.
“It will kick serotonin into high gear and help combat pain, decrease appetite, and produce calm or sleep,” say The Nutrition Twins, Lyssie Lakatos, RDN, CDN, CFT and Tammy Lakatos Shames, RDN, CDN, CFT and authors of The Nutrition Twins’ Veggie Cure.
