Your Relationship With Food Might Be Toxic

Food can affect more than just your weight

If I was ever to become a life coach, one of the first questions I would ask every client would be, “How is your diet?” If most of your food items come from a package, your diet can affect more than just your weight. What you are eating could be affecting your mental health.

In this pandemic where we are in a mental health crisis, we need to take a closer look at the connection between nutrition and mental health.

A micronutrient deficiency can also contribute to depression and anxiety, and the number of people who have been experiencing depression and anxiety has certainly been increasing.
