Carbohydrates work to reverse the down-in-the-dumps mood of winter depression and will do the same during the summer. Serotonin, the feel-good chemical in your brain, will be made only when you eat starchy or sweet carbohydrates.

Who knows? After a repast like that, the hot sun or incessant rain may not seem so bad after all.
