Sobre este episodio
It’s easy to think of mental health as something happening only in the brain. But more and more, we’re seeing how closely it’s tied to what’s going on in the gut. Today, I’m joined again by Dr. William Li, a New York Times bestselling author. We discuss his latest book, Eat to Beat Your Diet, and how food, inflammation, and microbiome shape the way we think and feel. Watch the full conversation on YouTube, or listen wherever you get your podcasts - https://youtu.be/rY0OE-1blL0 In this conversation we discuss: • What if your anxiety or brain fog is actually a signal coming from your gut • Why gut health may be the missing piece in how we think about mental health • How everyday foods can either fuel inflammation or help calm your system • The compounds in real food that quietly support memory, mood, and mental clarity • Simple shifts that can help reset your system and support how you feel day to day Mental health isn’t separate from the rest of the body. The more we understand that, the more it shifts where you look for answers. If you’re looking for more support and community around this, the 10-Day Detox is designed to help reduce inflammation and support your body using real food.
