Eating to Reduce Stress

Nutritionist Edita Kaye points out foods (that most people crave) that can actually add to stress:

• gooey desserts
  
• chips
  
• nuts
  
• meatloaf or processed meat
  

Men and women have different food cravings. For example, women typically crave-fatty and sweet foods like chocolate, cookies, cakes and candies, while men usually want spicy and salty foods like chips, dips, burgers and fries.

The best foods for a stressed stomach are the following:

• apples

• bowl of oatmeal

• cookies and milk

• figs
  

The following foods are the best substitutes for junk food:

For Him

• vegetarian chili

• salsa, not ketchup

• pretzels

• oven-baked French fries
  

For Her

• favored licorice

• angel-food cake

• nonfat frozen yogurt

• chocolate syrup
