Washtenaw Family Forums
UP NEXT
A free virtual forum
Monday, July 12th @ 7PM EST
With Dr. Kristen Allott, MD, MS and Natasha Duarte, MS
Authors of: Fuel Your Brain, Not Your Anxiety
When life gets hectic, many of us turn to comfort foods to relieve stress and meet the challenges of our jobs, families, and relationships. But these foods—typically low in protein and high in sugar—can actually fuel anxiety, increase stress, and act as a roadblock to recovery.
So, how can you feed your brain and not your anxiety?
In this virtual, interactive forum, you’ll discover how protein and sugar affect your emotions and energy and learn how to make healthier food choices—at home or on the go.
