    Food for Thought: Healing the Mind Through the Gut

    In this episode of Next Level: Good Vibes Only, Darren and Jessica explore the powerful relationship between your gut and your mind. Inspired by Hippocrates’ timeless insight, “All disease begins in the gut,” they unpack how this “second brain” plays a critical role in everything from mood and energy to immunity and digestion. You’ll learn how gut imbalances can manifest through anxiety, skin issues, or fatigue—and how the gut-brain axis, connected through the vagus nerve, influences overall health. The conversation also dives into modern food systems, nutrient-depleted soils, and the rise of ultra-processed foods that disrupt this delicate balance. Darren and Jessica offer practical tips on how to read labels, cut out harmful ingredients, and add more fiber-rich, whole foods into your meals. They emphasize the importance of mindful eating, tuning into how food affects your energy, mood, and clarity. If you’re ready to make small, intentional changes that can lead to better gut health and a more vibrant life, this episode is your starting point. Tune in, nourish your body, and unlock your full potential—one bite at a time.
