June 30, 2008
Regardless of the cause, when we are stressed, we often end up feeding ourself with diet-busting goodies for pleasure and comfort. If you thinking of classic bowl of ice cream for cheering up yourself, then think again. It’s a total backfire now. These foodstuffs instead of soothing our frayed nerves, makes us feel worse by kicking insulin level and causing sudden drop in blood sugar. So make sure you eat the right comforts food which really do exits and helps to feel more relaxed and better off.
Go Nuts:
Brazil nuts provides you good amount of zinc, which usually get drained off when you suffer from anxiety.
Almonds Gives you vitamin E which helps you to fight against the cellular damage caused by chronic stress.
Eating nuts between the meals help in keeping the blood sugar on balanced levels. Unsalted peanuts, cashews and other forms of nuts do wonders to your health. They are packed with vitamin B complex, which keeps tiredness and adrenal problems at bay.

Asparagus:
Each tender stalk asparagus is a rich source of folic acid, which is a natural mood lightener. You can eat this with fat-free yoghurt and hit the calcium with each bite.
Tea time:
A warm drink is super soother. Trust me curling up with a cup of aromatic tea makes your whole bad day go away, at the same time makes you feel good and lighter.
Dark chocolates:
Chocolate is the best comfort food ever. So whenever you get those chocolate cravings reach for the darkest kinds, which are 70%cocoa.This is because the antioxidants flavors present in them are potent enough in fighting cancer and heart disease.
Ooh! Oranges
Oranges are rich source of vitamin C. It has been found that people who feed themselves with oranges before delivering any speech have lower levels of cortisol and lower blood pressures than those who don’t. So what are you waiting for, lean back, take a deep breath and concentrate on peeling a large orange.
