Worst Foods

Here is a list of some items that you need to avoid while under stress.

• Coffee

  It is popularly said that drinking coffee makes you fresher often. It makes you more energetic by stimulating dopamine activity also it reduces the chance of absorption of Vitamin B and D, the key mood-balancing vitamins. Also, when you add sugar to a cup of coffee, it will lead to a post-sugar crash that makes you feel more hungry, and automatically you will search for sugar with more cortisol.

• Diet Soda

  Sometimes having a soda makes you more energetic, but don't make it a habit. Because many diet soda contains an artificial sweetener, which blocks the production of the neurotransmitter serotonin. As a result, you may suffer from insomnia, mood changes, stress, headaches, etc.

• Wheat Bran

  We all may be aware that Wheatbrans are rich with fiber and are good for health. Another side of this contains a high concentration of phytic acid. This anti-nutrient block the absorption of mood-minerals like magnesium, zinc, etc.

• Pressed Juices

  We may all have the habit of drinking pressed juice for refreshing. The important content of sugar is fiber, glucose, and fructose. The result is a blood sugar spike from the glucose that triggers a rush of the stress hormone adrenaline, and the fructose can alter how the brain responds to stress on a genetic level. So try to avoid pressed juices especially filled with sugar.

• Red Wine

  When you drink a glass of wine makes you feel relaxed. A few drinks before bed leads to reduce sleep problems, blood sugar swings, and dehydration but as a result, it will increase your stress-hormones more.

• Tofu

  When you eat more soy-based products will be treated with glyphosate, a herbicide shown to cause nutrient deficiencies, especially in mood-stabilizing minerals. Soy is rich with copper-a mineral associated with anxious behavior. Tempeh and miso are some variety of Soy items, which are easy to digest and you can choose that.

• Pretzels

  The main features of this baked-food are they are rich with high-sodium, which increases your blood- pressure, and they are easy to digest which leads to anxiety as well. without the digestion-slowing fiber typically found in whole-grain, complex carbs, pretzels made from simple carbs will spike glucose levels—which then raises the stress hormone cortisol.

• Chinese Take-out

  Chinese food is one of the worst offenders of sodium-laden fare. If you're constantly shoveling high-sodium foods into your diet, you may exacerbate your body's stress response as well as worsen your body's regulation of blood pressure, resulting in general high blood pressure or hypertension.

• Canned

  Soup Most of the canned soups include Bisphenol A (BPA) is an endocrine-disrupting, hormone-mimicking chemical, which will altering genes in the stress-mediating portion of the brain, according to research. Studies have shown that children eating more BPA content foods lead to anxiety problems.
