Calm Your Mind With Food With Dr. Uma Naidoo

from Well Beyond 40 · host JJ Virgin

Can changing your diet calm your mind? New science is saying it can. In this episode, I’m talking to Dr. Uma Naidoo about anxiety in women over 40 and why changing what’s on your plate could change your mood. Dr. Naidoo founded the first hospital-based nutrition psychiatry practice in the country, meaning she is on the cutting edge of understanding the gut-brain connection and its impact on hormones and mental health.    From the overlooked nutrients you should be monitoring to crucial dietary shifts and beneficial spices to try, Dr. Naidoo has helpful strategies you can begin using today to support your mind and body.    If you’ve been anxious, struggling with sleep, or generally feeling out of sorts, make sure you don’t miss a moment of this episode!   FULL show notes: jjvirgin.com/uma   Subscribe to my podcast: http://subscribetojj.com   Read my book, The Virgin Diet: https://store.jjvirgin.com/products/the-virgin-diet-paperback Learn more about Dr. Uma Naidoo: https://umanaidoomd.com   Read Calm Your Mind With Food: https://amzn.to/4acrGKs   Read This Is Your Brain on Food: https://amzn.to/3GA6n88   Listen to previous episodes with Dr. Uma Naidoo: https://jjvirgin.com/?s=Dr.+Uma+Naidoo   Dr. Joe Dispenza meditations: https://drjoedispenza.com/?rfsn=6914154.37386a&utm_source=refersion&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_campaign=6914154.37386a   Study: The Lancet: Global prevalence and burden of depressive and anxiety disorders in 204 countries and territories in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic:  https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(21)02143-7/fulltext   Study: American Journal of Public Health: Mental Illness Stigma, Help Seeking, and Public Health Programs: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3698814/   Butcherbox grass-fed & grass-finished beef: http://butcherbox.go2cloud.org/aff_c?offer_id=2&aff_id=1330 Reignite Wellness™ Magnesium Body Calm: https://store.jjvirgin.com/products/magnesium-body-calm Designs for Health Ferrochel Iron: https://amzn.to/3TbiEY3   Reignite Wellness™ Vitamin D Plus: https://store.jjvirgin.com/products/vitamin-d-plus   Reignite Wellness™ Extra Fiber: https://store.jjvirgin.com/collections/supplements/products/extra-fiber   Try Pique Tea: https://www.piquetea.com/?rfsn=2861870.fbd50&utm_source=affiliate&utm_medium=email   Podcast: Is There Such a Thing as “Anti-Nutrients”? with Dr. Deanna Minich: https://jjvirgin.com/main-podcast/is-there-such-a-thing-as-anti-nutrients-with-dr-deanna-minich-ep-585/   Kooroo Cold Plunge: Go to https://www.koorucoldplunges.com/ and use code JJVIP500 for $500 off   Study: Cell: Gut Microbiota-Targeted Diets Modulate Human Immune Status: https://www.cell.com/cell/pdf/S0092-8674(21)00754-6.pdf   Get wild-caught fish and seafood from Vital Choice: https://vitalchoice.sjv.io/daKYGy   Reignite Wellness™ Omega Plus: https://store.jjvirgin.com/products/omega-plus   Get a FREE digital download of bonus content from Dr. Uma's next book: Calm Your Mind with Food: https://umanaidoomd.com/pages/calmyourmindwithfoodsneakpeek Learn more about your ad choices.
