Are you wondering why you just don’t feel right in your body these days? More people than ever before are suffering from some sort of mood disturbance. Maybe for you, it is anxious symptoms or shades of depression. Maybe it is an overwhelming sense of stress. Maybe you lost your libido, and your relationship is suffering. Maybe you feel like you must wade through a thick cloud to find the right word, or you just can’t focus as well as you used to. Or is it your inability to control your mood that is troubling you? Maybe you lash out at your kids or spouse and then regret it later. Any of these mood disturbances can be disruptive to your quality of life and yet, many people think this is normal to live like this every day. What many people don’t know is that an imbalance in your brain chemicals (neurotransmitters), hormones, and gut microbiome can be caused by nutrient deficiencies. By making sure you have the building blocks your body needs, you can alleviate all kinds of mood imbalance symptoms.
Nutrevo Body identified over 25+ vitamins, minerals, amino acids, fatty acids, herbs, and spice extracts which have extensive clinical research on managing mood imbalances naturally. A few of the nutrients which have been clinically shown to help optimize overall mood include:
To have balanced neurotransmitters, hormones, and gut health, you need to give the body the raw materials and nutrients it needs to optimize mood health. If there is a deficiency in any of the nutrients needed for these processes, there will be an imbalance in your mood, brain, and body. The Nutrevo Body mood nutrient-based nutrition plan takes a 3-step approach in optimizing mood naturally:
Neurotransmitters (brain chemicals) such as serotonin, dopamine, GABA, and others are the building blocks to overall mood regulation. An imbalance in any of these neurotransmitters because of nutrient deficiencies can be the difference between actually enjoying life and feeling daily anxiousness and depression.
Hormone and neurotransmitters communicate with each other and when there is an imbalance in hormones, this can have a direct effect on neurotransmitter function. Thyroid, cortisol, insulin, testosterone, estrogen, and progesterone hormones, when imbalanced, can lead to anxiety, depression, fatigue, poor sleep, low libido, and more.
The gut-brain axis is a bidirectional communication channel that controls both your mood and digestion. Serotonin, dopamine, and other neurotransmitters are produced in the gut and travel to the brain to control your mood. When there is a gut health issue or imbalance such as chronic constipation, gas, or bloating, this can affect neurotransmitter production and overall mood health.
