509: Your Brain on Food with Dr. Uma Naidoo


Listen Later

You know that feeling when you order food that looks great but makes you feel like crap? Maybe it’s deep fried or sugar-ladden. It tastes great, but an hour later, you regret it. Now what if that happens once a week, once a day, or multiple times a day for years? 

Obviously, your physical health can suffer, but your mental health can too. On this week’s podcast, you’ll meet a nutritional psychiatrist who is a thought leader on the mental health and nutrition connection. 

Listen and learn:

  • How turmeric plus black pepper makes the curcumin 20x more bioavailable
  • Only 10% of the USA population eats enough fresh produce daily
  • Prebiotic vs. probiotics
  • Psycho-social aspect of foods and how that impacts your mental health
