There are certain chemicals that make us feel happy and good, and some foods make it easier to produce those chemicals. The main chemicals you may be aware of include dopamine, serotonin and GABA. If you are deficient in these you are more likely to feel anxious, irritable and tired, so here are some foods for anxiety, to try to incorporate into your day which boosts chemical production and in turn supports you to feel less anxious.

Supporting GABA production includes fermented foods such as kimchi, kombucha and sauerkraut. Other sources include berries, citrus fruits, tea, cocoa and wine.

Supporting serotonin production includes foods such as eggs, milk, cheese, tofu, nuts and seeds. Combining these foods with complex carbohydrates such as rice, oatmeal or grain breads will further support production.

Supporting dopamine production includes foods such as dairy, eggs, fruits - especially bananas, nuts and dark chocolate.

Some simple ways for you to incorporate these into every day:

• have a green tea with a handful of almonds or walnuts in the morning
• Make one of your snacks through the day a banana or orange 
• Include brown rice or beans with one of your main meals 

Making small simple changes and including some of these foods everyday is taking a step towards calming anxiety and increasing our happy chemicals.

If you want to really combat anxiety and stress, combine these foods with some of the best stress relief supplements. These are also known as anti-anxiety and cortisol reducing supplements! - @louisagiampaolo_dietetics
