Studies have found that foods rich in zinc help inhibit the secretion of cortisol in our body. This mineral, which is also important for bone and immune health, is found abundantly in pumpkin seeds, sesame seeds, lentils, garbanzo beans, cashews, quinoa, hemp seeds, almonds, walnuts, peas, chia seeds and broccoli.
Plus, low fiber diets tend to lead to poor gastrointestinal function and inflammation, which alters cortisol balance. Carbs that lack fiber tend to be refined or processed foods like bread, cereal, cookies, or crackers. Naturally fibrous carbs include almost all veggies and fruits.
