Delicious Fall Foods to Try
When fall's darkness descends before the workday is even done, and you're already having a bad day, the temptation to indulge is understandable. Grab a pint (oh, make it a quart) of ice cream, and pull up the covers.
Giving into temptation may provide short-term joy, or seem like it does. But if you often experience symptoms of depression, healthy whole foods may actually make you feel better all season long. A growing body of research links specific foods and nutrients to improved depression symptoms, so it turns out that what you eat does make a difference, either by helping to boost your mood, or by worsening it.
Food can't, and shouldn’t, replace depression treatments such as medication or therapy. But focusing on diet and exercise, as well as medication and therapy, can be a very successful mood-boosting strategy, experts say.
Here are six delicious good-mood foods to incorporate into your everyday diet.
