4 times superfoods for a good mood

So. Shall we all just act normal again? Well, at least I will. I've had such a giga party week behind me that I spent almost the entire day on the couch yesterday and ordered myself a big bowl of sushi in the evening. This morning I was the first at the Vitamin Store to start the day green and healthy. I chose a green monster with spinach, lemon, pineapple, ginger, and a fresh shot of wheatgrass. There, that's in.

Monday is a real startup day for most. Sometimes you still have a bit of a hangover from the hangover from Sunday or you're still completely in the relaxed “I-don't-have-to-do-anything-Sunday”. Recognizable? I'll give you some foods that will give you an energy and happiness boost. You could definitely use that on this Monday.

Banana

Bananas contain potassium, which is immediately stored in the blood, giving you an energy kick. Also good to know is that it's a snack with less than 100 calories. Nice, right?.

Honey

Put a spoonful in your tea or spread it on a toasted slice of bread. It contains kaempferol and quercetin that keep your brain healthy and can prevent depression. So it's a perfect pick-me-up.

Grapes

Grapes contain a lot of sugar. Fortunately, it's natural sugars, but be careful not to eat a whole bunch too often. This is perfect for a quick energy kick when you're feeling down.

 Chocolate

Yes, yes, I understand that you'd prefer to eat a Kinder Bueno or a piece of Milk chocolate, and you can definitely do that, but I would honestly go for a dark chocolate bar. And preferably with 70% cocoa or more. It contains the substances phenylethylamine and endorphins. That gives you a feeling of being in love and euphoric. Says enough, right?
