      @@dorotakowalska6090 Food was used as medicine for a long time before big pharma came along. Many still use food/herbs for medicine and they work just fine, sometimes even better than the big pharma drugs because they don't have all of the side effects that come along with it.

    I love that you mentioned keeping your gut healthy in order to keep your brain healthy! The gut-brain axis is like a super-highway connecting the gut and the brain. If you ignore either end (the gut or the brain) you won't see as profound of a benefit. I see this all the time when people have tummy issues and hyper-focus on the gut and ignore the brain side of the equation.

    A couple of months ago a friend of mine gave me the advice to be more mindful of eating enough protein because I had a hard time feeling satisfied after meals. Yesterday I was looking through my mood tracker and I realized I’ve been feeling really happy for almost a month. Who knew protein could help my mental health???? This is amazing! Love all the knowledge in this video, will save and definitely rewatch. Thank you 🙏

    This video is so beautifully and carefully created. Many mom's don't realize that a toddler's/child's mood swings are a result of missing some of the nutrients mentioned in this video. It's called "hidden hunger" where multiple micronutrients are missing and cause outbursts, tantrums and the works. Goes to show how processed foods and anything unhealthy can affect us in such a negative way. 🙃🌿

    Vitamin D really is a thing! I've been noticing a HUGE mood improvement since I started taking a vitamin D supplement. I live in a northern city where we get 5-7 hours of sunshine per day from November till April (and "sunshine" is quite a strong word for what we actually get, lol), so, I guess, there's not too many options for me to get that vitamin 😅
