The Seattle Times reports that the food we eat directly affects the mood we’re in. In her book, “The Good Mood Diet: Feel Great While You Lose Weight”, registered dietician Susan Kleiner writes that, “what and when we eat directly affects mood. And our mood not only affects what we choose to eat, but how our body responds to that food.” Then ten foods nutritionists recommend eating to enhance your mood are: milk, oily fish, strawberries, spinach, sweet potatoes, turkey, brazil nuts, low-fat yogurt, foods or drinks with caffeine, and cottage cheese.
