Summary
Michelle and I discussed eating foods that help with mood disorders such as anxiety and depression on today's show. We often talk a lot about balance and not including your favorite foods such as sugar, but, in Michelle's case, for example, moderating those foods and possibly even eliminating, for the time being, has proved considerable dividends in her mood and overall happiness. We gave you specific foods that help with anxiety and the why behind it. Enjoy the show!

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Key Nutrition Podcast. You're one stop shop for everything, food, fitness, and mindset. |
| 0:03.8 | On today's episode, me and Michelle talked about using food to help with anxiety and depression. |
| 0:09.7 | We talk a lot about the other side of having balance of this 80, 20, and I'm really big on not |
| 0:14.3 | restricting your favorite foods or labeling foods as good and bad. And this is the other side of the coin. |
| 0:18.9 | While we never once labeled any foods as good and bad in here, is the other side of the coin. While we never once labeled any foods |
| 0:21.0 | as good and bad in here, so we're keeping with that theme because that is kind of core to the |
| 0:24.9 | message of what we're trying to bring to you guys. We also talked about, but there is times |
| 0:28.2 | where maybe that balance doesn't look like 20% you eat whatever the hell you want because maybe |
| 0:31.9 | that 20% is really, really negatively impacting you, your mood, your neurotransmitters, your serotonin, |
| 0:39.3 | your overall mental health or physical health, right? |

| 0:58.1 | it doesn't always work right away, but you have to keep doing them and eventually it works, right? |
| 1:02.0 | And so she got herself out of it. |
| 1:03.6 | And so she's done a lot of research on her own about certain foods that can help promote a better environment in the body for less anxiety, |
| 1:13.9 | less depression, and why these foods work. And some leverage points just to remember like it's, |
| 1:22.8 | for Michelle, a huge leverage point was not just to lose weight anymore. It was about how do I feel. |
| 1:26.9 | And that was such a dark time that member pain is such a motivating factor that she not just to lose weight anymore. It was about how do I feel? And that was |
| 1:27.5 | such a dark time that remember pain is such a motivating factor that she's willing to change up her |
| 1:31.7 | whole diet because she doesn't want to go back to feeling that way. So the message is listen to your |
| 1:35.9 | body. And like we want to give you some tips. If there's somebody who struggles with anxiety or |
