When eating to improve my mood, I don't necessarily want to give up the foods I love and find comforting.
Which is why I'm so glad that avocado toast with eggs is one of the BEST breakfasts you can eat if you deal with depression.
Avocados are rich in healthy fats which our brains need to function. They are also full of potassium (more than bananas), folate and vitamin K, all of which have been shown to ease the symptoms of depression.
Eggs have choline and vitamin D, both of which have been shown to boost your mood. They're also a great source of protein to help you stay full in the morning.
Whole grains contain more nutrients than their refined counterparts, including iron, magnesium and vitamin B. The increase in fiber also helps a healthy digestion and gut.
Try swapping out a sugary cereal for eggs and avocado on toast one day a week!
