CALM YOUR MIND WITH FOOD

A revolutionary full-body approach to relieving anxiety, including anti-anxiety recipes and meal plan guidelines, from bestselling author, chef, nutritionist, and nutritional psychiatrist Uma Naidoo, MD.

Researchers and the public have historically believed the gut, brain, and immune system to be separate, distinct entities. However, recent research indicates these three major systems are surprisingly connected. Few people realize that we have an immune system in our gut - and it greatly affects our mental health and, specifically, our tendency towards anxiety. This revelation is transforming the way we think about food, anxiety, and mental health.

In Calm Your Mind with Food, Dr. Uma Naidoo reveals the science behind these connections, and offers suggestions on foods and supplements we need to eat to both strengthen our gut and calm our anxiety. Throughout this groundbreaking guide, she reveals the Anxiety Superfoods and the foods we're better off avoiding.

With surprising insights from the latest research and dozens of delicious recipes, Dr. Naidoo shows us how we can build up the health we need to become immune to anxiety.
