Serotonin is our anti-anxiety, feel-good hormone 💜. When people are feeling #lowmood or #anxiety, it's because #serotonin levels are low. THE GOOD NEWS is we can boost #serotonin through changing our diet and improving our #guthealth. Here's how! 🤓 • 1. Serotonin is made from a #protein called #tryptophan (this is what makes us feel sleepy after #turkeydinner). Foods high in tryptophan provide the body with the building blocks it needs to make more serotonin. Chicken, turkey, eggs, nuts and seeds, tofu, and other healthy proteins contain lots of tryptophan. 🍗🥜🥚🥩 • 2. We also need B vitamins, specifically B6, B9 (folate) and B12, to make serotonin. Foods high in #Bvitamins include dark leafy greens, eggs, nuts, seeds, legumes, and meat. 🥦🥬 • 3. Get your vitamin D levels tested and supplement accordingly. Vitamin D activates a gene that is necessary for the production of serotonin. We get vitamin D from the sun, so if you live in #canada, you're likely deficient. Read my post about #vitaminD for more! ☀️ • 4. Most of our serotonin is produced and stored in the gut. We see a major correlation between people with #digestion concerns like #ibs #crohns #sibo and #colitis and peopel experiencing anxiety or depression. Basically, when the #gutflora is altered and the intestinal tract has #inflammation, we get BOTH digestive symptoms and mood symptoms. To improve our mood we almost always need to address digestion. 💩🦠 • 👉🏼 Learn more at drhilarchambers.com/gut-brain-connection/ 👉🏼 Book an appointment at drhilarychambers.com/book-your-appointment • #torontonaturopath #myfcpex #firstcanadianplace #mentalhealth #bellletstalk #etobicoke #villageofislington #digestiondoctor #healthegut #digestivehealth

There's a strong correlation between having #digestive concerns and experiencing #anxiety and/or #lowmood. 😢💩 Here's why: • We produce 90-95% of our #serotonin (out anti-anxiety hormone) in the gut. When we have a digestive condition like #ibs #crohns #sibo or #colitis , we often don't regulate our serotonin production, leading to mood concerns. 🤯 • There is more and more research coming out about the importance of the gut-brain connection, read more here: https://drhilarychambers.com/gut-brain-connection/ ‼️ • As a Naturopath, I treat the underlying cause of conditions, meaning we almost always need to address intestinal health as part of #mentalhealth support. 🦠 • However, there are so many helpful tools to help support #mood while we're treating the gut, including herbs, nutrients, and foods that help to manage your anxiety or low mood while we're addressing inflammation and the micorbiome in the gut. ♥️ • Learn more about my approach to treating anxiety, #depression and digestive health on my website, link in bio. 👩🏼‍⚕️ • #torontonaturopath #digestivehealth #bloating #crohnswarrior #gutbrainconnection #gutbrain #gutflora #dysbiosis #myfcpex #firstcanadianplace #etobicoke #villageofislington #ibd

I'll fess up - I'm one of those people who loves New Year's resolutions! 🥳 It's the perfect time to reflect on the past year and frame your goals for the year ahead. • Here's how I like to reflect and develop #goals - I hope it’s helpful for you! Tip: Use "I" statements to take ownership of your accomplishments, shortfalls, and goals for 2020: • 1. What am I proud of from 2019? 🤩 a) HEALTH 🍎 - I reached new fitness goals, and for the first time ever, started to embrace cardio (#peloton) - I had a major surgery, and I recovered and I'm feeling better than ever • b) WEALTH 💰 - I grew my practice and started my Corporation - I engaged in a new business opportunity - announcement to follow in the coming months! • c) HAPPINESS ☺️ - I started therapy again to continue to self-reflect and grow - I travelled lots, built new and existing friendships, and set boundaries with people go who weren't positive influences in my life. • 2. Where did I fall short in 2019? 🤔(Sorry friends, this one is private) a) HEALTH b) WEALTH c) HAPPINESS • 3. Learning from my successes and areas for improvement, what do I want to achieve in 2020? (Also keeping this just for me) 🧩 a) HEALTH b) WEALTH c) HAPPINESS • 4. What steps can I take IN JANUARY to put these goals into action? Here are some ideas... 💡 a) HEALTH - Book an appointment with a Naturopathic Doctor - Buy Tupperware so you can start that #mealprep life b) WEALTH - Sit down with a financial planner - Start doing your taxes now c) HAPPINESS - Commit to a weekly class doing something that brings you joy - Pick one area of your life that needs #boundaries. Set them. • REAL TALK: if the idea of #selfreflection and #goalsetting is daunting, then it might mean you don't love the direction your life is heading. Start with something you're proud of + one thing you'd like to improve. Recognizing weakness is truly a strength. 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻 • Wishing you and your loved ones a happy and healthy start to 2020! ♥️ • #newyearnewyou #newyearsresolution #2020resolution #newyears2020 #happynewyear #goalsetting #healthgoals #ibs #sibo #bloated #torontonaturopath #firstcanadianplace #myfcpex
