Feeling a bit under the weather? If you are expecting, pregnancy blues may feel like a lot to conquer, but even the most common food can battle the worst days. Simply familiarize yourself with mood-boosting nutrients, and consume food rich in these, namely:

Nuts
Brazil nuts are highest in selenium which is also called the “feel-good” mineral. You won’t go wrong with almonds, too! Mix them in your cereal, smoothie or eat them roasted.

Salmon
This is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which help with pregnancy depression. You also need the extra protein for your growing baby.

Oatmeal
Do not underestimate this fiber-rich food. It helps produce serotonin, the hormone responsible for improving your mood. Do not forget to pour in some fortified milk for added serotonin!

Dark chocolate
Chocolate has an amazing effect on your hormones, reducing stress levels and making you feel happier and more relaxed. Make sure to get the dark variant, as this contains less sugar and more cocoa.
