About this episode
The episode discusses five foods that can improve brain health and enhance mood.
When you’re feeling a little blue, eating to feel better can be an appealing proposition. But the reality is we often turn to junk food or sugary treats that are high in calories and packed with salt or saturated fats. Of course, our mood can be impacted by a number of factors and there’s no magic fix that will instantly make us feel better. But there are actually types of food out there that have been proven to improve brain health and thereby beat mood disorders. Which foods are proven to improve brain health?
