Ever feel like you’re spiraling—irritable, moody, exhausted—but you can’t pinpoint why? What if the answer isn’t in your head, but on your plate? Sometimes it’s not just “mental health”—sometimes, it’s nutritional deficiencies showing up as anxiety, fatigue, or mood swings. 

In this episode, we dig into the often-overlooked link between what you eat and how you feel. From the gut-brain connection to the hidden impact of nutrient deficiencies, we’re breaking down why your diet might be the real culprit behind the way you feel. Forget the quick fixes and look at what’s feeding your mind and body.

For anyone who’s questioned if there’s something wrong with them, this conversation sheds light on the power of nutrition in supporting mental wellness. Discover how making small, realistic changes can shift your mood, stabilize your energy, and help you feel like yourself again. Because sometimes, taking control starts with understanding that you really are what you eat.

Stacie offers nutrition consultations online and in person in the DFW and Killeen area. She also does speaking engagements, cooking demos, and nutrition support for teams and athletes.
