CAN ICE CREAM IMPACT YOUR MOOD ?

  Ice cream, a yummy delight is often called a mood changer and is said to lift our moods and make us feel happy after consumption. Eating ice cream makes you feel amazing isn't it, scientists have proven that- why ice cream has shimmied into the comfort food list. It has been found that eating ice cream is a stimulus to our brain that acts the same way when we listen to music.


A study conducted at the Institute of Psychiatry, London used a functional MRI machine to watch the reaction in people's brains when they had a bite of vanilla ice cream. With a single swallow, the orbitofrontal cortex at the front of the brain lit up in response.

 This part of the brain is known for “processing” and is known to become activated when people enjoy themselves. Similarly in a study conducted in Belgium, where researchers published images of brain activity during sadness and found out that the brain's responses to sadness were significantly reduced when ice cream was consumed. It is also reported that less hunger and a mood upliftment took place when the solution of ice cream was taken in. 


Ice cream contains protein and fat, both of which our bodies need to help level our moods. On top of that, the amino acids you take in when eating ice cream, such as tryptophan, are known to increase serotonin production. That leaves us feeling calm, satisfied, and happy! 


Science has now proven, what ice cream lovers have believed a little bit of ice cream goes a long way in chasing the blues away. Different flavors of ice cream can also have a variety of effects on one's mood. The ice smile ice cream mixes have a range of flavors, which are 100 percent natural and 200 percent tasty!
