video a week because food is life food
is so important and I used to have a lot
of panic attacks back in the day and
once I eliminated certain foods I
realized gosh where did my panic go it
where did it go okay you are what you
eat there are foods which can heal our
anxiety and our depression and there are
foods which can make it a whole lot
worse so what is the first food that can
heal your anxiety let’s start with that
eating foods which are rich in
tryptophan which is the amino acid which
is the precursor to serotonin
okay so super powerful serotonin that
neurotransmitter you’re gonna feel live
baby you’re gonna feel alive you’re
gonna feel good as someone who has been
eating a plant-based diet for over 13
years I can tell you the best sources of
tryptophan hands-down walnuts and the
walnuts actually look like a brain
that’s a good sign okay
mushrooms yes mushrooms bananas
fantastic
chocolate fantastic
any excuse to eat chocolate okay great
sources of tryptophan which produce a
lot more serotonin so you feel better
what’s the second food to heal anxiety
then we’re gonna talk about the ones
that actually hurt your anxiety okay and
depression B vitamins are crucial are
essential get your B vitamins from
avocados spirulina b12 seaweed this
helps promote better wellness better
mental health studies show that if you
have a deficiency in B vitamins you are
more prone to depression so you can even
take vitamin B supplements I haven’t
done that I just get it from plant-based
sources but that does one this okay so
also pine nuts have a lot of B vitamins
green beans fantastic millet can’t
forget about millet fantastic source of
B vitamins that you need to keep calm
and stay cool what’s the third food that
heals or hurts anxiety or depression
eating whole grains hands-down will heal
anxiety or depression whole grains brown
rice brown rice fantastic sauce okay
carbohydrates Cobb up are crucial to
reduce anxiety and depression because
they are releasing sugars into your
bloodstream very slowly which is crucial
because insulin is not released so
quickly okay you are eating a lot of
refined you are eating if you are eating
a lot of refined grains like white rice
just sugar right now your blood sugar
level is gonna increase which produces a
lot of insulin it’s not good right so I
found what keeps me calm is just a bowl
of brown rice brown rice is good brown
rice quinoa r–‘s fantastic right
whole grains brown bread fantastic kamut
fantastic TIF fantastic I’m going to
Ethiopia in eastern injera right what’s
the fourth food that heals or hurts
anxiety or depression we’re talking
about foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids
which reduce the inflammation in the
brain you need omega-3 fatty acids for
neurogenesis you’re gonna have more
brain cells because depression remind
yourself studies show from Harvard that
people who are depressed have a smaller
hippocampus right so neurogenesis you
want that you get that from omega-3
fatty acids plant-based sauce
chia seeds more omega-3 than salmon so
my mom my mom always used to say this my
mom always used to say take your fish
oils but then I started to do the seven
day vegan challenge mark right
okay so omega-3 can be found in chia
seeds fantastic source okay so any
excuse to eat seeds chia seed porridge
my favorite right now with almond milk
oh you can’t you can’t beat it right
what’s the fifth food that can heal or
hurt anxiety or depression we are
talking about leafy greens more
magnesium eating foods which are rich in
magnesium common herbs
kale arugula spinach watercress
fantastic anything that’s leafy and it’s
green is a good to go that will help you
heal your anxiety or your depression
okay what is number six
protein got protein yes a lot of protein
hemp powder a complete source of protein
okay so once you are getting a complete
source of protein that is that is
plant-based your anxiety is gonna
decrease why Ralph protein produces the
chemicals norepinephrine dopamine which
studies show have made people feel more
alive more a lot okay more mental focus
so that actually reduces a lot of
anxiety and depression now number seven
this is the seventh food that helps or
hurts anxiety or depression we’re
talking about caffeine that’s stimulant
okay this actually hurts you it gives
you more anxiety Coffee number one
culprit I don’t drink coffee last time I
drank coffee was in Ethiopia it was
pretty tasty however I don’t drink
coffee because I’m already high enough
the problem with coffee is they inhibit
serotonin production which is supposed
to make you feel good right and a lot of
people who are drinking a lot of coffee
is a diuretic so it’s gonna constantly
make you want to go to the toilet you’re
gonna be dehydrated okay now
studies show dehydration leads to
depression okay so you want to stay
hydrated with pH 10 water and removing
those stimulants that’s really what’s
helped me along my journey reduce the
anxiety okay
what’s number eight avoid sugars white
sugar that’s what I’m telling myself
every single day because it is just
absorbed into the bloodstream and you
get a super high followed by a super low
oh you thought I was gonna hang on high
no you get a super high then super low
okay so especially white sugar which is
really like a poisonous a drug okay it
has no
nutritional value a solution agave
nectar raw cane sugar okay and this
really helps us reduce anxiety and
depression because it’s a pond based
sauce what is number nine blame it on
the alcohol blame it on the alcohol
that’s right
alcohol is a depressant a lot of people
say I’m feeling a bit anxious let me
drink but alcohol actually does the
opposite it’s a depressant okay and also
it is a diuretic you keep once again
going to the toilet so you are gonna be
dehydrated and when you’re dehydrated
you’re more prone to be anxious and
depressed
okay so guava juice is good guava juice
guava juice can work high in vitamin C
and what’s the tenth food that can heal
or hurt anxiety or depression hot dogs
hurt you processed foods okay I know
this because I used to love junk food
burgers hot dogs and I was more anxious
depressed because you want what you eat
the Finland study shows people who are
eating more fruits and veg are less
likely to be depressed people who are
eating more junk food are more likely to
be depressed and anxious okay
the London study showed that famous
London study that people who are eating
more processed foods like hot dogs full
of nitrates okay what happens
you are 58 percent more likely to be
depressed
okay so hot dogs they don’t live in my
house I don’t I’ve never seen a hot dog
like I haven’t seen a hot dog in the
last like five years okay that’s why I
don’t have a lot of anxiety okay I get
anxiety if I see a hot dog right so
there you have it in a nutshell
