Foods that Can Ease Your Stress

[Hyacinth]

If you feel that your stress level is rising, it might not hurt to reach for any of these foods. They are said to be a stress buster since some of them help regulate the body's stress hormone and lower blood pressure.

Thanks for sharing that article, Hyacinth. I'm not surprised to see green vegetables, oranges, or avocados on the list, but the turkey did surprise me!

Probably best to choose organic versions of those foods also. The pesticides and hormones added to animal feed can also be contributors to unbalanced hormones.

Potato's and green vegetables have been mainstays of my diet for a long time now. I've also been a calm person for a long time. The one that surprised there was Oranges.

Interesting that many of these have high levels of tryptophan, the amino acid responsible for post-Thanksgiving napping!

That's an interesting article! I'll have to remember the sweet potato for the next time I want carb-laden sweet treats. For some reason it rarely crosses my mind even though it's so good.
