Description

It’s that time of year when we’re hyper-focused on what we’re eating or not eating—what diet to follow, what foods to add to your shopping cart, what drinks to avoid. The lists you’ll find, though–and there’s a ton of them right now–are all focused on topics related to your physical health like weight loss. But no one is talking about what you should and shouldn’t be eating for your mental wellness. So in today’s episode, we’re sharing 5 of the worst grocery items for your mental health. And they’re not necessarily what you’d expect—like chips or frozen pizza. Let’s dive in!


 


Studies mentioned:


Nitrated meat products are associated with mania in humans and altered behavior and brain gene expression in rats


Neurobehavioral Effects of Aspartame Consumption
Adverse reactions to aspartame: Double-blind challenge in patients from a vulnerable population
