The ultimate guide to using the power of food to improve your mood, energy and mental wellbeing

Mental health and wellbeing have taken centre stage in recent years, with important national conversations about what we can do to promote healthy minds and bodies. It is becoming increasingly accepted that what we eat, our gut health, and even how we eat can have huge effects on our mood and mental state, yet so many people don’t understand why this is, or how to harness this information for optimal health.
In Good Mood Food, leading Nutritional Therapist Charlotte Watts explains the fundamentals of mind-body health, in a comprehensive, clear, and accessible way. She shows how you can use simple nutritional tools to help manage many mood disorders, explaining how and why it all works along the way. It goes without saying that diet affects our physical health, so it should be no surprise that it impacts our mental health too - our brains are part of our bodies after all!
With chapters organised by mood disorder, the reader’s personal experience becomes the route into learning more about the role diet plays in their mental wellbeing. Charlotte explains how to use food to combat the most common issues that affect people of all ages, and discusses specific body mechanisms, underlying causes, symptoms, and nutrient needs that support these for each category: improve your energy levels, focus, resist cravings, reduce anxiety, get more sleep, tackle depression and achieve balanced hormones.
Each chapter also features 6–8 recipes that are perfect to combat respective issues, and ends with meal plans to help you work mood-boosting ingredients into your everyday diet. From IBS to SAD, Good Mood Food draws on the latest research into the human microbiome, mental health, and links between the gut and the brain, and is the perfect companion for anyone who wants to understand a little more about how what they eat affects how they feel – and what to do about it!
