Researchers created the Antidepressant Food Score (AFS) to analyze different foods. They wanted to find those which are most beneficial for fighting depression. There are thirty-four nutrients known to be essential for humans. All foods were analyzed for all the thirty-four nutrients. Resent studies have revealed the top seven foods with the most nutrient-dense profiles for the prevention of and recovery from mental health disorders.
The highest scoring foods were bivalves such as oysters and mussels, various seafoods, and organ meats for animal foods. The highest scoring plant foods were leafy greens, lettuces, peppers, and cruciferous vegetables.
All the leafy greens are high in serotonin proteins, folate, which are one of the ‘must-consume’ vitamins to prevent & treat depressive disorders. Yet, watercress is one of the most potent anti-depressant on this list! Take advantage of this vegetable in your Organic Harvest Box this week!
