Bad Habit During COVID-19 - Panic-Eating comfort foods.


 


Panic-Eating comfort foods. 


During times of high stress, it’s common to return to comfort foods. These are foods from our childhood, family, or other emotionally soothing time in our lives. They make us feel good by releasing neurotransmitters in the brain which interact with our mood and sense of well-being.




In the short term, this feels pretty good, but these comfort foods also tend to be high in carbohydrates (sugar) and fat–a combination the brain is wired to crave during periods of stress. When this feeling doesn’t resolve, it can create a dangerous cycle of cravings following by crashing. 



In addition, sugar slows immune function, and contributes to gut dysbiosis, which can have lasting negative impacts on health . 

What to do instead: 

Stick to the foods you know are good for you, because they’ll maintain steady energy to the brain and muscles without the crash, and without affecting your mood negatively.

Frozen veggies, sweet potatoes, squash, and quality protein shine right now because they can be stored easily, are less perishable than fresh produce, and are easy to prepare.
