Indulge in Dark Chocolate. Dark chocolate in the diet can reduce stress in two ways â its chemical impact and its emotional impact. Chocolate feels like such an indulgence that it can be a real treat to simply savor a piece of it, and that feeling alone can help to reduce stress, says Meyerowitz.
The association between food and feelings has been well documented. The good news is that an improved diet can actually help to reduce your stress levels and relieve your adrenal fatigue. Simply put, what is in your food will affect your body and mind. The type of food determines whether that effect will be positive or negative. Poor food choices that people commonly seek out in times of stress include: 1  Caffeinated and sugary drinks like coffee, tea, sodas, soft drinks or energy formulations. 2  High fat foods with little nutritional value. 3  Starchy foods like white bread, pasta, cakes or cookies. 4  Alcohol.
