Ice Cream, Chocolate and Anxiety

You say it: these three words do not seem to have anything in common. Anyway, I have to use them together, like you do.

In fact, I have come to know from anxiety sufferers that many of them have more anxiety symptoms when they eat these sweets.

The same can be said for drinking coffee. Drinking contributes to anxiety. If the coffee is taken as a short espresso, as the Italians do, it does not influence the nervous system. On the other hand, if you brew your coffee the American way, too much caffeine dissolves in the water and can then harm you. If you limit your intake of this coffee, that’s fine. Limiting it means not drinking more than a maximum of two cups. If you have the same problems with these foods, try not to eat them.

There are many other good nutrient sweets or stimulating drinks or foods that don’t harm your body and especially don’t harm your nervous system.

Instead of eating ice cream, try a soft serve ice cream that is less cold. Or try drinking ovaltine instead of eating chocolate. Incidentally, Ovaltine is now also available as a crispy snack. It does you no harm and also gives you some vitamins. The ones that are good for the nerves. And it does not contain white sugar. Sugar as such is good for people with anxiety, stress and panic attacks. However, it is better to use fruit sugar or cane sugar instead of white sugar. You can also find cookies made with fruit sugar.

Ginger root can also be a good alternative. It’s not sweet but it gives you the boost you get from coffee. Try ginger root dipped in a (sweetened) syrup. One must get used to the taste. If you like it, it will help you in many ways. First, it stimulates you when you are very tired. It satisfies you with its sweetness. So it helps you boost your immune system. He won’t eat loaded trucks, which is good for his weight.

Just a little bit of chocolate (possibly dark) can calm your system and help your brain. If you have heart problems, dark chocolate is good for that. Protects the heart and blood vessels. The chocolate must be dark, that is, do not eat milk chocolate. The cocoa it contains must be above 80%.

You see, there are many good foods that can help you overcome anxiety and stress. If eaten in moderation, they do not cause any weight gain.
