Feeling flat, foggy, irritable, unmotivated, or just “off”?
In this episode of The Metabolic Edit, I break down why mood and motivation are deeply tied to your physiology: blood sugar, nutrient deficiencies, neurotransmitters, sleep, and even human connection.
We’ll cover:
- The key brain chemicals (dopamine, serotonin, GABA, endorphins) and how they shape your mood
- Why under-eating, poor sleep, and stress wreck your brain chemistry
- The food and lifestyle fixes that actually help you feel better - TODAY
If your mood feels off, it’s not a character flaw - it’s a signal. With the right inputs, your brain and body can reset.
