Mood-Boosting Foods: Dr. Kellyann's Picks from Sherri

When it comes to feeling your best, what you eat matters. Dr. Kellyann joined Sherri to take viewers on a trip through the grocery aisles, highlighting foods that not only nourish the body but also boost your mood. 


Aisle 1: Canned Goods

  • Canned Salmon: Packed with omega-3 fatty acids, canned salmon supports brain health and helps keep your mood stable. Plus, it’s portable and easy to use in meals.
  • Canned Beets: Rich in nitric oxide, canned beets improve blood flow to the brain and reduce inflammation, keeping you sharp and focused.

Aisle 2: Snacks

  • Dark Chocolate (70% or higher): This treat is loaded with compounds that trigger endorphins and dopamine, giving you a natural, feel-good boost.
  • Pumpkin Seeds: High in zinc, these portable snacks fuel vital brain functions and are easy to incorporate into your diet.

Aisle 3: Produce

  • Arugula: Often overlooked, arugula is packed with B vitamins like folate, which supports neurotransmitters like dopamine and serotonin for better mood regulation.
  • Avocados: A fiber-rich superfood that stabilizes blood sugar levels and helps maintain a steady, positive mood.

Aisle 4: Drinks

  • Kombucha: This probiotic-packed drink supports gut health, which plays a crucial role in mental well-being through the gut-brain axis.
  • Green Tea: Containing L-theanine and GABA, green tea helps you feel calm and focused without making you drowsy.

Aisle 5: Frozen Foods

  • Wild Frozen Blueberries: These antioxidant-rich berries promote blood flow to the brain and help reduce inflammation. Enjoy them frozen as a snack or add a dollop of whipped cream for a treat.
  • Cashew Ice Cream: A dairy-free option that’s gentle on the gut and provides healthy fats to nourish your brain.
