The human body creates the brain chemistry of their own anti-depressant in the form of serotonin. These chemicals will appear in a lesser amount to people who stress, distress or depression, and that’s why anti-depressant drugs interact in a biochemical pathway we are to increase levels of serotonin, are artificial.
When people feel stressed, they will search for comfort, because people will naturally avoid pain (physical or emotional) and to seek pleasure. People who fail in the diet tend to seek comfort from food-based carbohydrates, especially simple carbohydrates, because these foods provide intake of sugar levels high in an instant, but also stimulates the process of spending (secretion), the serotonin effect “happy” or “happy” .
So, if you are undergoing weight-loss diet, in order to avoid a sugar craving or desire to consume carbohydrate / sugar as a source of serotonin, was available some natural foods that have the same effect in increasing serotonin or counteract the desire to consume sugar. These foods are referred to as the “happy food” because of its effect, which could give a sense of happiness, but of course good for your diet, such as: Bananas, Avocados, Grapes, Apples, Nuts Almonds, Brazil nuts, and eggs.
In addition, with the many demands of work and responsibility, we tend to experience can be called ‘hurry sickness’. Even in conditions we would eat in a hurry. For that, try to treat yourself better, because of all the daily problems can drive away in an effort to achieve ideal body weight. So, keep calm and do everything more slowly. By eating slowly, digestion and absorption of nutrients from food would be more optimal.
And that is not less important, make sure you have the ‘time for yourself’. This will deflect the impulse to entertain yourself with instant habits, like eating chocolate, candy, ice cream or cake with a layer of thick cream. Rather than consume all the food that will actually increase the deposition of fat in your body, it is better you reduce stress that you experience with meditation or doing your hobby. And make sure that you consume no chocolate compose yourself, but “happy food” as mentioned above.
