Anger and Nutrition


Why do I get angry so often?

The answer to your question may come as a surprise.

Increasingly, outbursts of rage and anger rise from poor nutrition. Who would have guessed? Some “experts” sniff at this notion, citing their own favorite causes—one-parent homes, the negative barrage of electronic games, mental illness, and the like. And those may all play some part to an extent, especially in the United States. However, poor nutrition is too often the underlying reason.

Today, it’s possible to exist on processed foods and fast foods laced with ingredients that imperil health. Choose instead foods and supplements that support good health like vitamins—especially the calming B vitamins—minerals, and others. If you’re well nourished, you will be much more able to manage your anger.

So look into nutrition. It’s an important key to enjoying a better mood, being more pleasant and understanding, and being more easily able to forgive others.
