How can you avoid stress when you have to get things done at the right time? But you can cope with it, at FPN we care, these four foods will help relieve stress plus shrink your waistline. They are:
Avocados
Avocados are packed with B vitamins (proven stress-relievers), as well as monounsaturated fats and fiber, both of which help keep you full. You could just take half the fruit, add a squeeze of lime on top, and eat it with a spoon.
Chocolate Milk
In the mood for something sweet? Go for this childhood favorite. Chocolate milk has potassium, which helps relieve muscle spasms if you’re dealing with physical stressors. Just make sure to stick with the low-fat version.
Oatmeal
This fiber-packed food will keep you full and give you an instant lift to overcome stress. Oatmeal helps with the production of serotonin, which is the feel-good chemical in our bodies. Use nonfat milk to make it (you’ll get extra protein and calcium), and mix in almond butter for added fiber and protein.
Raspberries
Low-calorie fruit is a great, healthful way to get your sugar fix. Raspberries in particular are full of stress-busting antioxidants and immune system-boosting vitamin C.
Quite educating…you really don’t have to battle with stress and its unhealthy results any longer.
