In this insightful episode, I explore the vital connection between nutrient deficiencies and mental health. It highlights how the foods we consume can significantly impact brain function, mood regulation, and overall mental well-being.    Key points:   - The importance of nourishing our minds with essential nutrients like omega-3 fatty acids, B vitamins, and minerals to potentially alleviate conditions like anxiety, depression, and ADHD.   - The role of balancing omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids in reducing chronic inflammation linked to mental health issues.   - The crucial roles of omega-3s in maintaining healthy cell membranes and neurotransmitter function, and the importance of B vitamins and vitamin D for managing stress and supporting mental health.   - The significance of addressing deficiencies in magnesium, iron, and zinc for individuals struggling with anxiety, ADHD, and related challenges, as these minerals regulate neurotransmitters and promote brain health.   - The recommendation to incorporate more whole, nutrient-dense foods and consider supplements to support optimal nutrient levels and mental wellness.   Resources: Want to start consuming whole, nutrient dense foods but don’t know where to start?  Check out my Balance: Nutrition for Mental Wellness Program to ensure you are getting the proper nutrients.   Do you know you are lacking in specific vitamins or minerals and suspect they can be playing a part in your mental health struggles?   Book a complimentary call here to see if my Roots Revealed Program can help you get back to feeling like you again.   You can find some of my favorite supplement recommendations for vitamins, minerals and fatty acids here.    Connect with Michelle: Website: www.michellemariemeyer.com Facebook: Thyme to Nourish Instagram: @michellemariemeyer Pinterest: Michelle Meyer
