About this listen
In this episode of the Wellness Amazon podcast, I speak with registered dietitian Kristine about the intricate connections between nutrition, mental health, and the experiences of highly sensitive people (HSPs). We explore how diet impacts mood, the importance of key nutrients, and practical strategies for managing emotional eating and decision fatigue. The conversation emphasizes the significance of mindfulness, meal prep, and hydration in maintaining overall well-being, particularly for those who are HSPs.
Practical Tipps:
Eat the rainbow daily - more color means more brain-protective phytonutrients
Prioritize omega-3s - aim for 2–3 servings of fatty fish per week or supplement as needed
Ditch the ultra-ultra processed stuff - look for foods with fewer ingredients
Add a fermented food daily - yogurt, kefir, sauerkraut or kimchi
Stay hydrated - even mild dehydration can impair mood and focus
Regular Exercise: Boosts mood and reduces anxiety.
Sleep: 7–9 hours per night supports brain and hormone function.
Mindfulness or Meditation: Helps manage stress and emotional eating.
Social Connection: Shared meals and community support both mental and emotional health.
