Food to suit your mood: Cucumber

Cool yourself off by consuming foods that have a cooling effect on your body. For instance you can try eating cucumber, having a bowl of yogurt and drinking a chilled glass of milk.   Another perfect way of managing anger is turning to green tea. Researchers at Tohoku University Graduate School carried out a research and found out that those who had green tea were less stressed out and less aggressive. They attribute the calming effect to theanine which has a tranquilizing effect on the brain. Consequently it results in production of alpha brain waves that induces a relaxed state of mind. Additionally, they concluded that theanine alters the levels of neurotransmitters like dopamine and serotonin.
