I hope so! Nuts have healing properties and are great for mental health. Pop some nuts into your shopping bag next time you are buying groceries.
- Walnuts rank highly for supporting good mental health because they have higher antioxidant activity. This means it is good for brain health plus they help ease depression.
- Almonds also have antioxidant activity like walnuts.
- Peanuts increase serotonin. Serotonin is a chemical which helps to alleviate low moods.
