Stressful Foods
Foods higher in nutrients, vitamins, and minerals will fuel you more effectively lessening your stress hormones. And we know that there is a monster list of foods that heighten stress, such as:
- FLUNC foods – Frozen, Left-overs, Unnatural, Nuked, or Canned
- Dairy
- Sugar
- Alcohol
- Soft drinks
- Salt
- Caffeinated coffee and tea – Caffeine stays in the body for up to six hours before it starts to break down triggering long-term infusions of cortisol.
Replace them with these stress-busters:
- Fresh vegetables
- Water
- Omega fatty acids
- Chamomile and herbal teas
- Chewing on ice rather than junk foods
