@sheengurrib: Anxiety, brain fog, low mood, it’s not just in your head… it might be in your gut. 🧠💥 
Your gut has over 100 million neurons (yep, more than your spinal cord!) and is constantly chatting with your brain through the vagus nerve. It makes 90% of your serotonin and 50% of your dopamine — the chemicals that control mood, sleep, and focus. When your gut’s inflamed or imbalanced, your brain feels it. 
So if you’re living on coffee for breakfast, eating the same meal-prepped lunch every day, or mindlessly scrolling while you eat, your gut-brain connection might be crying for help. The fix? Rotate your veggies, start with protein + fiber, and eat in a calm, present state. Your gut doesn’t need a “cleanse”, it needs to feel safe. 🫶 Did you know meal prepping could be increasing your anxiety?! #gut #guthealth #mealprep #nutrition #nutritionist
