The nutritionist named the products that will help avoid autumn blues.

      September 1, 2026 13:41 Society Dietitian Elena Solomatina shared how to prevent autumn blues, which often occurs after summer. To maintain good well-being, it is important to provide the body with necessary microelements and vitamins, as well as to improve blood circulation, according to the recommendations of the specialist published by "Abzac."

      The doctor claims that to maintain vitality, it is necessary to prevent inflammation in the gastrointestinal tract, provide the body with magnesium, tryptophan, vitamins B and D, and also improve blood circulation. To achieve the first goal, it is recommended to consume a variety of cereals, as well as bright vegetables, fruits, and berries. Blueberries, blackberries, and blueberries are particularly beneficial, as well as plums. Red pepper is an excellent source of vitamin C, while tomatoes contain lycopene, which also has antioxidant properties. Red onions can be added to soups and drinks, as they help restore damaged cells.

      Dairy products, such as fermented baked milk and kefir, as well as pickled products, including apples, cucumbers, and sauerkraut, contribute to improving the condition of the gut microbiome.

      To combat microelement deficiency, the dietitian recommends consuming healthy offal, such as liver and hearts. They contain vitamins A and B, zinc, and other beneficial substances that help maintain the body's tone. Green vegetables, seeds, and nuts are sources of magnesium, a deficiency of which can lead to irritability.

      Cod liver and baked herring contain omega-3 and vitamin D, which are essential for nervous system health. Ginger, horseradish, and mustard improve blood circulation and elevate mood. Green tea contains L-theanine, which helps relieve tension and improve concentration. Turkey, cheese, and brown rice are rich in tryptophan—a amino acid that promotes mood improvement and stress relief.

      According to research from Edith Cowan University in Australia, regular consumption of fruits and vegetables can reduce stress levels. In a study conducted among 8,600 participants aged 25 to 91, it was found that people who eat at least 470 grams of fruits and vegetables daily experience 10% less stress. The World Health Organization recommends consuming at least 400 grams of fruits and vegetables per day. NIA "Nizhny Novgorod" has channels on Telegram and MAX.
