In the second episode of my anxiety series, I’m talking about the biochemical imbalances I treat in my clinic that have a tremendous impact on anxiety. Understanding your unique biochemistry, meaning the nutrient imbalances and overloads within your body, is a powerful pathway to healing.
In this episode, I discuss:
The impact of biochemical imbalances on anxiety
How your brain is a chemical factory that requires certain nutrients to function optimally
Methylation is a process that affects neurotransmitter activity and development, and imbalances can lead to anxiety
Undermethylation and overmethylation are two variables of unbalanced methylation (too few or too many methyl groups)
Copper toxicity affects mental health by lowering dopamine and increasing norepinephrine in the brain
Zinc deficiency is linked to low neurotransmitter function, which can cause chronic anxiety
Pyrrole disorder is a mood and stress disorder that results in deficiency of zinc and vitamin B6 that can cause high anxiety
