Best Answer

There are to my knowledge no foods that decrease anxiety but I do know of foods such as sugar, chocolate, caffeine and foods with hydrogenated fats/oils, additives, chemicals, colors, preservatives, etc., many processed foods, and all the foods that promote the growth of candida albicans, that increase (or sometimes cause) anxiety.
