Description

Explains that overthinking and anxiety are often linked to nutritional and gut microbiome imbalances, rather than purely psychological causes. Specifically, deficiencies in Vitamin D and missing gut microbes—particularly L. reuteri—can disrupt neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine, contributing to obsessive thoughts and anxiety. The speaker critiques SSRIs for their serious side effects, such as emotional blunting, and recommends a natural approach using high-dose Vitamin D3 and cultivating L. reuteri to restore neurotransmitter balance and reduce stress.
