Using the multifocal functional medicine approach successfully applied in her functional nutrition practice, Ali will navigate you through the connection of anxiety to dysbiosis and the microbiome, leaky gut and food sensitivity, HPA-axis and stress response, hormones and neurotransmitters, genetic contributors, and micronutrient status. You will learn about the brain-gut axis and how inflammatory foods can disturb cognition while imbalanced gut bacteria are intimately connected to mood imbalance and cravings. She will emphasize the micronutrients that play a role in activation of neurotransmitters as well as key amino acids that serve as building blocks for production to replete deficiency.
Ali uses a ketogenic diet as the foundation of her Anti-Anxiety Diet program and layers in functional food-as-medicine approaches to address roadblocks and take results to an optimal level. Learning objectives: Identify and understand the role of 3 “keto-friendly” foods that drive inflammation in the body, determine how much protein you need per day and why that is important for neurotransmitter balance, and how to balance your gut bacteria to work for you and which strains reduce anxiety activity.
