Publisher's Synopsis
Much of what you eat is converted to blood sugar, says Jeannie Gazzaniga-Moloo, PhD, RD, of Roseville, Calif., a registered dietitian and spokeswoman for the American Dietetic Association. Your cells use blood sugar for energy. "To keep a stable mood, you want to maintain your blood sugar levels. Eating foods that are slow to digest will help you do that," says Gazzaniga-Moloo. "Foods that are high in fiber such as beans, oats, brown rice, apples, and other fruits and vegetables are good examples." High-fiber foods are also an important staple of a healthy diet.
