How does nutrition affect mental health?

You don't need to buy expensive avocados or organic supplements for mental peace. Simple, budget-friendly local items like curd, bananas, and soaked chana are great for gut health, which directly affects your brain.

Does anyone else get sudden mood drops and mild anxiety attacks when they skip meals or eat too much sugar? I am starting to think my diet is majorly triggering my anxious phases.

I recently recovered from severe mental exhaustion by completely cutting out processed sugars and adding fresh curd and green veggies to my lunch. The gut-brain connection is real; my focus has improved tenfold.

I had severe lethargy and brain fog which I tried to fix just by dieting, but it turned out I had critical Vitamin B12 and D3 deficiencies. Please get your blood levels tested properly by a doctor before self-managing.

Beta, eating fresh, sattvik meals on time is the foundation of a peaceful mind. A handful of soaked almonds in the morning and a cup of warm milk with turmeric before sleeping keeps the brain nerves very calm.
