285. How to Stop the Sugar-Anxiety Feedback Loop with Dr. Ellen Vora [Best Of]

OCT 10, 202460 MIN

Description

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
