Diet Effect on Brain Functions

For the brain and body to be able to produce the needed hormones and neurotransmitters, which are essential for you to feel happy and calm, they must be provided with protein, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and other nutrients. If you consume foods with complete nutrients, they will positively affect you and you will not easily suffer from mental disorders.

On the other hand, if you eat foods that contain chemicals, such as pesticides, GM foods, and preservatives, or other artificial ingredients, it can affect your mood and cause depression and anxiety.

Hazelnuts and Depression

Hazelnuts provide several benefits to the nervous system. They contain compounds that help improve brain functions. Furthermore, they help support memory and fight depression. The vitamins in hazelnuts stimulate the production of chemicals in the brain, such as serotonin and adrenaline, which affect mood and sleep patterns.

Moreover, hazelnuts contain vitamin B6. Confusion and depression are common symptoms of vitamin B6 deficiency. In addition, because they contain fatty acids, vitamin E and manganese, they stimulate mental functions. They also contain thiamin required to maintain nerve activities and its deficiency causes mental disorders.
