Food affects mental health

Food can be medicine—or it can be what’s causing physical and even mental health issues.

Regularly eating highly-processed foods that cause stress and inflammation in your body can lead to disease over time.

The gut is also known as your “second brain” for a reason: because the gut and brain constantly communicate through nerves, hormones, and the immune system, your gut microbiome can directly affect mood, focus, and overall brain function.

I’ve worked with clients who have overcome rheumatoid arthritis, eczema, acne, bloating/gut inflammation, clinical depression, and daily panic attacks—simply by changing what they eat.

Limiting processed foods and understanding your food sensitivities can not only change the way you look but also the way you feel.
