Not eating the right foods for our unique bodies creates anxiety. This anxiety shows up as a felt sense of anxiety AND also “needing something more” to eat but not knowing what that is or a general feeling of being unsatisfied with what they just ate.
To help us go into depth and teach us about this sugar-anxiety feedback loop, I’ve invited a holistic psychiatrist and my friend Dr. Ellen Vora onto the show. In this episode, we will discuss:
- Real and false anxiety
- How and why sugar creates anxiety
- Clean eating versus nutrient-dense foods
- Dr. Vora’s top foods to add in for reducing anxiety and sugar in one’s diet
- Caffeine’s role in anxiety and how to end your coffee habit
Mentioned in this episode:
- Read Dr. Vora's book, The Anatomy of Anxiety
- Ali’s Breakfast Experiment
