If you’ve ever been hangry, you know how food (or lack thereof) can influence your mood. But did you know that the type of food you eat influences your mood, too?
Why? Because the gut produces 90% of the body’s serotonin and 50% of its dopamine, two powerful influencers of mood. Just as the gut can impact the mind, this connection also means that mood changes can affect the gut.
Join Aviv Clinics’ physician Dr. Kevin Cooke to learn about the brain-gut connection, the importance of creating a healthy gut microbiome, and types of high-fiber foods that can boost your physical and mental wellness. Alongside this educational lecture, guests will enjoy a cooking demonstration featuring a high-fiber beans and greens bowl.
