Show Notes:

Dr. Rachel E Burnet, Licensed Clinical Psychologist: Washington Center for Weight Management & Research, https://www.wtmgmt.com/

Seasonal Affective Disorder Information: https://www.nimh.nih.gov/health/topics/seasonal-affective-disorder/index.shtml

Fruits and Vegetables: those high in tryptophan (dates, papayas, bananas, asparagus), those high in folate/magnesium (dark-green leafy vegetables like spinach, swiss chard, Brussels sprouts) and those high in vitamin C ( citrus, cantaloupe, papayas, kiwi, berries, chilies/peppers, carrots, yams).

Foods High in Omega 3's: fatty fish like salmon, tuna, sardines, seafood (oysters), and fish oil, flax seeds, chia seeds, pumpkin seeds (also high in tryptophan), walnuts, soybeans, and spinach.

Fermented Foods: yogurt, miso, sauerkraut, kimchi, kefir, kombucha, and tempeh.

Drinks: water, black, green or oolong tea

Chocolate: the darker, the better.

· A recent study showed eating 1-2 ounces of dark chocolate daily can reduce stress hormones like cortisol. Plus, a caffeine-like stimulant in the chocolate can give you an energy boost.

· When you do indulge, stick to one serving because it still has calories.

Mood Busters: refined sugars and starches, fried foods, fatty meats and fatty snack foods, and alcohol.
