Here are some foods you should eat more often in your 20s
Cinnamon: This spice contains plenty of potent hormone-balancing properties. cinnamon can keep insulin levels under control and may also help with the following :
reduce PMS symptoms
lower blood sugar levels
increase lean body mass
Dark chocolate: you love dark chocolate??? 😜😍 Dark chocolate has been shown to reduce levels of cortisol, a hormone released by the adrenal glands during times of stress. But while the occasional square or two of dark chocolate may be okay while cramming for a final exam or after a long day at work, remember to enjoy this sweet treat in moderation.
Salmon: The heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids in salmon help promote insulin sensitivity, leading to less insulin production and a decrease in androgen synthesis. Androgens are a type of hormone that triggers sebum production in the skin and elevated levels may be linked to acne.
Green tea: Not only is green tea chockfull of health benefits, it also help raise levels of epinephrine, a hormone that can help provide extra energy during times of intense stress — perfect for 20-somethings trying to navigate grad school or new careers.
