Omega 3 fatty acids are an essential fat that support heart, brain, and eye health by reducing inflammation, lowering triglycerides, improving blood vessel function, and supporting cell membranes in the brain and retina, benefiting mental health, development, and overall immunity.

Your body can't make them, so you need them from foods such as fatty fish, flaxseeds, chia seeds, or a supplement.

GABA-rich foods include fermented items (kimchi, miso, yogurt), vegetables (spinach, broccoli, sweet potatoes, mushrooms), nuts/seeds (almonds, walnuts, sunflower), whole grains, and certain teas (green, black, oolong), which either contain GABA or provide building blocks (like glutamic acid, B6) to help your body produce this calming neurotransmitter, though it's debated how much dietary GABA crosses the blood-brain barrier.

Winter = cold & flu season!!
Focus on hydration (filtered water, soup broth, and herbal tea), vitamins (C, D, A, E, B6), minerals (Zinc), antioxidants (flavonoids), and probiotics found in citrus fruits, berries, leafy greens, yogurt/kefir, walnuts, pumpkin seeds, fatty fish, and poultry, plus spices such as ginger and garlic to support your immune system and potentially shorten illness duration.
