The brain is where poor nutrition is first felt.
The brain is where poor nutrition is first felt. For instance, if you are deficient in iron you will feel depressed and irritable long before you develop anemia. But, if we rely on supplements, we're missing out on trace minerals and phytochemicals available to us only in whole foods. Your system works when fed properly and malfunctions when not!
Neurotransmitters, brain chemicals, are the means whereby the complex structures of your brain are turned into the conscious and unconscious workings of your mind. Several neurotransmitters have been tied to mood and depression. Furthermore, mental illnesses are clearly positioned as having a biological dimension as well as psychological.
When depression interferes with daily living, it can be considered a form of mental illness even if it is such feelings as loneliness, boredom, helplessness, alienation or hopelessness. Feeling sad from time to time is normal but losing interest in life signals depression.
Norepinephrine, seratonin, melatonin, dopamine, neuropeptides, and acetylcholine have been identified, so far, as mood altering brain chemicals.
Calming the mind and spirit are important parts of restoring health. And, conversely, restoring health calms the mind and spirit. Avoiding foods and habits that scatter the mind (rich foods, refined sugar, alcohol, coffee, eating too late and too large of meals) and a simple diet with perhaps occasional light fasting goes a long way toward building inner peace.
Denatured, devitalized, deficient foods may very well create denatured, devitalized, deficient lives. Depression, isolation, insecurities, fears, intense anxiety… Life depleting food intake becomes brain chemistry influencing thinking and emotion. Foods can drive emotions and passionate desire, emotional heat, and even social disarray.
