How To Use Nutrients To Support Our Brain Health

This episode is brought to you by Beekeeper’s Naturals and Athletic
Greens. Your brain is an organ that’s connected to everything else
happening in your body. Most of us never learn how to manage our
energy and bodies. Instead, we use drugs like sugar, caffeine, and
alcohol to self-medicate and manage our energy and moods. We don’t
connect our behaviors and choices with how we feel. Many of us get
too little good food, nutrients, light, air, water, rest, sleep,
rhythm, exercise, community, love, meaning, and purpose. We’re
exposed to far too much poor-quality food, stress, toxins, and
allergens. But even if you manage all those things correctly, you
still might not be getting the right amount of certain nutrients
that support your brain and body. That’s where supplements come in.
In today’s episode in my series I’m calling Health Bites, I am
talking about how to heal our broken brains with the right
nutrients. The brain is resilient and can recover and heal when
given the right conditions. This episode is brought to you by
