Dr. Uma Naidoo is a board-certified psychiatrist, nutrition specialist, and author of This is Your Brain on Food. She discovered a wide gap in healthcare when she realized that no one is talking about how certain foods can cause common symptoms such as brain fog and anxiety–while other foods can be used to reduce stress, boost mood, and improve focus. In today's episode, Dr. Uma breaks down key principles, takeaways, and tips from her best-selling books including the gut-brain connection that explains why you may be so stressed out. She explains why food affects mood, and offers easy "prescriptions" (AKA recipes, grocery lists, and lifestyle changes) if you need to get out of a funk, need to focus for a major meeting or exam, calm anxiety and stress, or if you have a special event like a wedding or trip you want to feel present and energized for. Money may not buy happiness, but food can.
