One of the keys is avoiding things that will give your body and mind real highs and lows like caffeine and alcohol. You don’t want to intake a lot of stimulants or a lot of depressants when you’re stressed. Skip that sugary snack you crave when the stress builds up. Sugar causes your blood sugar to spike and then fall quickly, which can make your energy level dip. Then you’re low energy and stressed and that’s not a good picture.
Not to worry — there are many foods you can eat that will help with your stress levels. Chill out by adding these four foods to your daily diet.
