Description

When you’re feeling down or anxious, food can feel like your best friend. But let’s be honest: many times, we choose the wrong foods that can leave us feeling worse. In this episode, JJ shows you how smart food choices can boost your mood and ward off the blues. You’ll learn why comfort foods can crash your mood, how stable blood sugar levels stabilize your mood, why feeling good starts in your gut, how chocolate can boost your mood (but only if you eat THIS kind), an easy intermittent fasting plan that gets great results, plus one food for a healthy mood that may surprise you. As JJ says, “there is no health without mental health.” Utilizing these strategies can help stabilize your mood… and it all starts on the end of your fork!
