Sometimes, it's the effect of a food or drink that can help reduce stress, not necessarily its nutrients. A warm cup of tea can actually calm many people, says Sandra Meyerowitz, MPH, RD, LD, online nutrition coach and owner of Nutrition Works in Louisville, Ky.
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.
