Waking up this morning to a grey drizzly day made me feel like I wanted to pull the covers over my head and go back to sleep.

Do these kinds of days get to you too?

If we snack on cashews we can fight  depression.

I came across this article over the weekend in Men's Journal that said if we eat two handfuls of cashews a day this can help keep depression away.

Researchers say it's because of the tryptophan, magenesium and B6 found in cashews that help stabilize our moods.They say it works just as well as prescription antidepressants.

Wow! That's good news. If you don't like to take a lot of medications then turn to this simple and easy snack.

Hmm. Interesting. Now I think I know why nuts are almost always part of those Christmas fruit and gift baskets.
