How Foods and Nutrients Control Our Moods, Huberman Lab Podcast, 11
This episode explains the brainbody connections that allow the specific foods we eat to control our moods and motivation. I discuss the vagus nerve and its role in dopamine and serotonin release in the brain. I review Omega3 fatty acids and the key role of the gut microbiome in supporting (or hindering) our mental and emotional states. Many actionable tools are reviewed and discussed related to fasting, ketogenic and plantbased diets, probiotics, fermented foods, fish oils, artificial sweeteners, specific supplements that promote dopamine and serotonin, and some remarkable behavioral (and belief) effects. , HubermanLab, Emotions, Neuroscience Thank you to our sponsors: Theragun InsideTracker Athletic Greens Our Patreon page: Supplements from Thorne: Artificial Sweeteners and Gut Micro
