Mood Food: How To Fight Depression Naturally with Nutrition with guest Karalynne Call EP161

Everyone has bad days, maybe even a string of bad days. Major depression is different. It’s like all color goes out of the rainbow. All oxygen goes out of the air. Everything is just… harder.Mental health disorders are complex. So is the brain. And so are the foods we eat, and the ways our bodies interact with those foods. We’re still new to this game of figuring out exactly how the brain works, and exactly how nutrients may improve brain health. But, there are some very promising possibilities. Our brain is greedy. It needs a lot of energy to work properly and to create neurotransmitters - chemicals that send signals through the nervous system. Without enough energy or the right nutrients, our brain won’t get what it needs. In fact, one study suggests that eating a lot of nutrient-sparse processed foods could up our chances of becoming depressed by as much as 60 percent. On today's episode, Cody visits with Karalynne Call, of Just Ingredients. Karalynne shares how she was able to fight depression naturally with nutrition.  She is a mom of six with a passion for better health and wellness within the home. She began her health journey nearly 15 years ago as she battled severe depression, and she has helped thousands of other people to begin their own health journey. She believes that nature provides the necessary nutrition in order for people to live healthy, happy lives full of energy. Her goal is to inspire others to make a change in their eating habits and daily product use, one ingredient at a time. Her personal story is inspiring and she's a wealth of knowledge.Connect with Karalynne Call:WebsiteInstagramDid you learn something new today?
