Emotional stability is heavily influenced by the balance of blood sugar, highlighting the prominent role of complex carbohydrates such as whole-grain bread, legumes, and quinoa. Unlike simple sugars that cause a sudden spike in energy followed by a mood crash and feelings of restlessness, complex carbohydrates release energy steadily and gradually. This stability prevents the release of stress hormones triggered by sugar crashes, helping individuals maintain better control over their emotions and stress responses during social interactions.
