Fueling the Brain: Diet & Mental Health
Description
Half the world will experience a mental health disorder at some point, and what you eat could be making a bigger difference than you think. This week, we're diving deep into the science behind food and mood—how nutrients affect your brain, your stress response, and your overall mental state. We cover everything from neurotransmitters and inflammation to omega-3s, dietary patterns, and why diversity on your plate actually matters. This isn’t about cutting out junk or chasing superfoods. It’s about understanding how your food choices can support your mental health in a real, lasting way.
