Eat Your Way to Happiness — Sarah Hiner Talks to Andrew Rubman, ND
When it comes to being happy, one of the smartest steps you can take is to keep your digestion humming. That’s because most of your body’s feel-good hormone serotonin is produced in your gut. When your digestion is working properly, so is your serotonin factory. And often, people with mood issues also have digestive issues. That’s why eating the right foods helps you feel your best not only physically…but also mentally and emotionally.
In this edition of the Bottom Line Advocator Podcast, Andrew Rubman, ND, a naturopathic physician and medical director of the Southbury Clinic for Traditional Medicines in Southbury, Connecticut, joins Bottom Line President and CEO Sarah Hiner to discuss the critical role the gut-brain axis plays in driving our moods and the best methods to help it function optimally. Dr. Rubman is a founding member of the American Association of Naturopathic Physicians and author of the Bottom Line blog “Nature Doc’s Patient Diary.”
