To be happy, it is very important to have a good mood as the day goes well and the stress gets reduced. Mood swings can affect your health and sleep cycle. In such a situation, it is most important that you find out why you often get mood swings. There can be several reasons behind this. Sometimes mood swings occur due to changes in hormones and sometimes some serious disease can also cause mood swings. Apart from this, mood swings can also occur due to a lack of certain vitamins and minerals in the body. 

Our body needs certain nutrients, which we get from food. We should eat the food keeping in mind the needs of the body and not just for the taste or to satisfy hunger. When vitamins and minerals are deficient in the body, it affects our cognitive function. In such a situation, it becomes difficult to remember things, concentrate, think positively and think clearly.

Deficiency of these vitamins can cause mood swings

Many researches have also revealed that the lack of vitamins and minerals in the body affects our mood. The major reason for mood swings can be the lack of vitamins and nutrition. Mood swings can occur due to the lack of Vitamin B, Vitamin C, Vitamin D, and Vitamin E in the body. Apart from this, mood swings can also occur due to the lack of minerals like calcium, chromium, iron, zinc, selenium and magnesium. Many times, other problems start occurring in the body due to lack of nutrition. 

Take care of these things in the diet 

Therefore, check your diet in terms of nutrients like how many nutrients you are taking in a day. Take care of the salt, sugar and oil intake. Also, try to stop consuming outside food and plan your diet accordingly. Include milk, dairy products, fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds into your diet.
