'The antidote to stress. Essential reading.'
Tim Spector, author of Food for Life
What if the key to calming your mind is on your plate?
Anxiety is at an all-time high, but according to nutritional psychiatrist Dr Uma Naidoo, what you eat can have a powerful impact on how you feel.
In Calm Your Mind With Food, Dr Naidoo combines cutting-edge science with practical advice to show how nutrition, the gut microbiome and brain health work together to influence anxiety, mood and mental wellbeing.
Inside, you’ll learn how to:
- Use food and nutrition to reduce anxiety and stress naturally
- Support your brain through the gut–brain connection
- Build a diet that improves mood, focus and resilience
- Identify foods that help—or worsen—anxiety and depression
- Create simple, effective anti-anxiety meal plans
With Dr Uma’s six key pillars, expert guidance and easy, nutrient-rich recipes, this is a practical, science-backed guide to mental health through diet. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, low mood or stress, this book gives you the tools to take back control: one meal at a time.©2023 Uma Naidoo
