It's not just short-tempered people who are prone to anger; many things in daily life cause frustration and annoyance, leading to irritability and negatively impacting the nervous system.

Bitter gourd helps reduce internal heat:The bitterness in bitter melon is excellent for calming the nerves of those who are often irritable and prone to anger, helping to improve nervous system control. Furthermore, bitter melon stimulates kidney function, thus aiding in the excretion of toxins from the body. Ultimately, anger and frustration stem from the brain being overloaded with substances that are not its own.

Therefore, if you can release this substance, your brain will feel lighter, and you won't be able to get angry even if you wanted to. It's best to consume bitter melon raw, juiced or thinly sliced ​​and mixed into salads to eat raw; otherwise, stir-fry, boil, or cook it. You should eat about 3-5 bitter melons per day.

Zucchini slows down metabolism.Winter squash (or zucchini) is very beneficial for people with high body heat due to excessively high metabolism. It's considered the coolest fruit on the list of cooling fruits. It can slow down the body's metabolism and, being low in calories, makes it ideal for combating increased heat production due to metabolism.

In particular, pumpkin has been shown to have a certain diuretic effect, so eating pumpkin is beneficial in two ways. You can eat boiled, stewed, or stir-fried pumpkin daily, but when you're extremely angry, quickly squeeze out the pumpkin juice, add sugar and ice, and drink it; your mood will calm down quickly.

Soybeans reduce nerve function:Soybeans are not only nutritious, but they also contain many amino acids, including tryptophan – a naturally occurring amino acid that reduces nervous system activity, balances and decreases electrical activity in brain cells. It's best to consume raw soybeans, soybean juice, or soybean smoothies to obtain the full amount of amino acids without denaturation. Soy milk can also be used as a substitute.

Bananas reduce electrical discharge.Bananas have calming properties for people with hot tempers. Bananas contain many nutrients, but one of them is potassium. Potassium is a cell stabilizer, including nerve cells. Biologically, mood swings are essentially changes in electrical activity in nerve cells. Preventing electrical discharges means preventing outbursts of anger. It's best to eat 2-3 bananas every morning, and eating a banana about 30 minutes before an argument can help control the situation more effectively.

Sleep regulates the neuropsychiatric state:Peanuts are incredibly rich in omega-3 unsaturated fatty acids. These fatty acids are involved in the synthesis of the amino acid serotonin. This amino acid regulates the neuropsychiatric state. It is a chemical mediator that connects nerves with the following functions: if you are too sad, it makes you happy (antidepressant), but if you are too hot, it calms you (anti-irritant). Therefore, this amino acid is very beneficial. Eating more peanuts means more omega-3, which in turn means more serotonin.
