Are you a nervous person? It may have to do with your diet, which is why we want to recommend some ingredients that will help you feel more relaxed and see the world from a different perspective. Here’s a list of 5 foods against stress.    

Products high in sugar give us a lot of energy, but the problem is that this energy drops suddenly, leaving us weak, as well as disturbing our nerves and hormones, which is not good at all. Additionally, those who suffer from severe nerves or simply live busy and tense lives can benefit from increasing their consumption of some of the following ingredients in their diets:

Nuts

Omega 3 helps maintain good blood pressure levels during stressful situations. Salmon is another alternative that also provides relief due to its high Omega 3 content.  

Recipes with Nuts

Kiwi

A dose of vitamin C helps alleviate the stress suffered by hormones found in the bloodstream. Although oranges and lemons can also help, kiwi has a higher acidic content.
