But not all products enhance mood. Some are with completely neutral effect, while others are subtle-loaded us with a brief burst of enthusiasm, after which we risk falling in even worse mood. American scientists decided to compile a list of some of the most frequently used in everyday foods able to spoil our mood.
Potato chips
Contains a number of harmful acids and the carcinogenic substance acrylamide. The combination of them is blocking the natural flow of endorphins, which immediately leads to a decline in mood.
Smoked meats
Industrial smoked meats and sausages contain large amounts of sugar, salt, preservatives and nitrates, which overwhelm metabolism and consequently can cause a bad mood.
Sweet soft drinks
Their use leads to a sharp rise in blood sugar followed by a sharp decline, resulting in a reduction of the mood. As strange as it sounds, the regular excess of sugary soft drinks is considered medically to be one of the potential factors to unlock the depression.
Margarine
Contains artificially synthesized fatty acids and a number of studies have confirmed that therefore can negatively affect mood.
Processed pumpkin seeds
They contain potassium bromate which block the uptake of iodine by the thyroid gland. Roasted and salted seeds are also evaluated by medicine as one of the products potentially able to spoil the mood. But well, the effect is short.
Sweet pastries
In general - lion dose carbohydrates for breakfast is not recommended because the body wakes up a little later from the brain and the digestive system needs more time to process the full abundance of carbohydrates. The delay in its normal rhythm violates the production of hormones, including those who care for the good mood.
Peanuts
Peanuts
Salty nuts on the store shelves contain sodium glutamate and a huge amount of additives and enhancers of unknown origin. To most everyone's surprise this product is also likely to cause bad influence on the mood.
