” We have the ability to create calm within, by selecting the proper foods.”
Retraining the brain to think and perceive in a better way is merely half the task when seeking full and permanent recovery from anxiety and depersonalization<strong>. Selecting the proper foods is the other half of the equation</strong>
Do not kid yourself, food can make or break both these conditions and often have the same ability as do chemical prescriptions.
By learning to use foods the correct way you gain nearly total control over the way your mind reacts. You have the choice to create a reactive mind and or one that rejects feelings of anxiety, depression or depersonalization by maintaining naturally strong levels of serotonin and balanced blood sugar in the body.
It’s as simple as that…balanced and stable blood sugar levels and replenishing serotonin levels naturally, on a daily basis…both achieved by a simple diet/nutrition formula.
A Few Simple Rules:
(1) Learn how to use protein properly in your diet. Lean protein is the key to building proper levels of serotonin in the brain. Learn to use it properly and it will change an overactive mind and body to cooler and calmer one.
(2) Never skip meals as this will lead to the release of adrenaline. Your body needs energy and will take it from this source if it cannot use food.
(3) You can and should skip the sugar, since this is what lowers serotonin levels and creates strong feelings of anxiety and often heightens depersonalization reactions.
(4) Whole grains and fiber trump white flour products because they take longer to digest, maintaining stable blood sugar levels for longer periods of time.
(5) Learn how to use your foods to provide energy, especially in the morning. This will keep you energized all day, without the wired, anxious reactions.
(6) Never fall prey to the late afternoon or early morning anxiety and heightened feelings of depersonalization. When you arm yourself with the correct foods such as lean protein, whole grains and beverages that fortify you rather than drain energy, you maintain a stable, balanced mind and body.
