Eating foods that give you pleasure can trigger the release of endorphins and dopamine, known as happiness hormones. These neurotransmitters play a key role in regulating mood and feelings of satisfaction. When you consume your favorite foods, especially the ones you love, it can stimulate the secretion of these hormones, which leads to feelings of happiness, comfort and satisfaction. This explains why we sometimes feel euphoric or get a mood boost after consuming something we like to eat.
