We laugh, but it is true!
Foods rich in magnesium help counteract issues such as muscle twitches, anxiety, insomnia, and high blood pressure, by supporting energy production, DNA synthesis, and antioxidant defenses.
Omega-3s boost heart health by reducing triglycerides, lowering blood pressure, and preventing plaque buildup. Omegas are crucial for reducing body-wide inflammation, supporting brain function, improving eye health, and aiding fetal development while also supporting the management of depression.
Protein, well we’ve heard people bang on about prorien all our lives & for good reason. Prorein is an essential nutrient composed of amino acids, vital for repairing tissues, building muscle, and supporting immune function.
While you may be low on some of these & require a little boost through supliments from time to time, nothing beats eating whole foods including fiber, vitamins, and other nutrients for better bioavailability.
The gut/brain Axis supports a bidirectional communication network that connects the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) with the enteric nervous system (the "second brain" in the gut).
This constant communication between the gut & the brain allows your brain to influence digestive functions like motility and secretion, while your gut sends signals that affect your mood, stress levels, and cognitive performance.
In simple terms granny was right YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT!
So get your magnesium, omegas & protein into diet to support better gut & brain health 🩶🤍🩶🤍
