Emotional pain, Your Food Is Your Medicine.
You may be suffering from emotional pain if you are feeling:
- Sadness
- Crying
- Feeling of helplessness
- Fatigue or low energy level
- Reduced pain tolerance
- Muscle pain all over body
- Headache
- Uneasiness in stomach
Above all in emotional pain, you also
tend to over react to your surrounding situation.
It is always better that you express your feeling to
someone you trust. And this can lessen
your emotional pain by 50%. The another thing that can
help you to get rid of this emotional pain is your food.
As I always say “Food Can Be Your Medicine”, let’s see
How your food can help in your emotional pain?
An amino acid called phenylalanine helps you to build up your
brain’s reservoir of endorphins. This endorphin is a
feel good hormone that increases your
feelings of pleasure and reduces your physical pain.
This phenylalanine is not produced in your body. So,
you need to get it from your diet and hence it is also known
essential amino acid. This phenylalanine also helps you
to reduce symptoms of ADHD, Parkinson’s disease, and ease
chronic pain. Few studies also shows that it also help you to
reduce symptoms related to your menses.
Good natural vegetarian sources of phenylalanine are:
- Soya bean and soya product
- Pumpkin seeds
- Sweet potato
In addition, regular practice of pranayama and yoga
may also help you to lessen your emotional pain.
