Avocado & Egg on Sourdough Toast

This quick and easy avocado breakfast is great for supporting mental health. Avocados and sunflower seeds contain tryptophan, which is known for being a good mood protein that can be converted into the mood-enhancing brain chemical serotonin. The eggs are a good source of protein and as a result, they contain amino acids, which make up the chemicals our brains needs in order to regulate our thoughts and feelings. It also helps to keep us feeling fuller for longer, which is important for blood sugar balance. Fluctuations in blood sugar levels have been directly associated with changes in mood and energy.
