Cooking is a creative form of self-care that uses arts, cooking, gastronomy, and a person’s personal, cultural, and familial relationship with food to address emotional and psychological problems
The benefits associated with cooking and mental health also extend to other factors, namely, encouraging healthier food choices, saving money from unnecessary indulgences in food take-outs and restaurant dine-ins, supporting cognitive health by lowering inflammation and stress, as well as boosting social interaction and communication.
