Is it possible to eat your way to a better mood? Can foods really impact how the brain makes you think and feel? The “Happy Eating Podcast” was created after we couldn’t find the information that we needed for ourselves and our families. Join us as we break down the connection between food and mental wellness as we explore how food, diet, supplements, and daily habits can make for truly Happy Eating.

Have you ever felt really happy and healthy in your body only to go to the doctor and learn that according to your BMI you are quote-on-quote overweight? Or have you put off going to the doctor because you didn’t want to have a discussion about your body weight or BMI? We’ve known BMI isn’t perfect and now there’s a growing body of scientific evidence that suggests using BMI as a measure is doing more harm than good. In today’s episode, we talk with leading weight inclusive researcher, Lizzy Pope about BMI and what other measures and tests we should be using. Let’s dive in!

Rant Therapy - I'm So Over My Vet Bill
4 days ago
4 days ago
The best (and cheapest) therapy for those small things that get under your skin is sometimes a good venting session so you can get it off your chest and move on with your life! And if you’re not privy to the first-hand vent-a-thon, then being a fly on the wall listening is hopefully equally therapeutic and also maybe entertaining.
Welcome to Rant Therapy, a podcast short powered by the hosts of the Happy Eating podcast, Brierley Horton and Carolyn Williams, where we periodically share our real-life venting sessions with each other—AKA what we’re “so over”.

12 Surprising Signs of ADHD in Women
Thursday Apr 25, 2024
Thursday Apr 25, 2024
For every 9 boys diagnosed with ADHD, there’s one girl diagnosed. But ADHD isn’t a gender-related condition. It’s that girls and women are so under-diagnosed. One of the reasons is because our symptoms look completely different from the hyperactive boy we all remember from elementary school. In fact, lots of women with ADHD did very well in school, are successful adults with good careers and generally appear to really have their lives together. Case in point—Carolyn! So in today’s episode, you’re getting a look behind the curtain of Carolyn’s mind. And you may find you relate. Let’s dive in.

The MTHFR Episode
Thursday Apr 18, 2024
Thursday Apr 18, 2024
There’s a gene defect that up to 50 percent of us have, but it’s not commonly discussed. It’s called the MTHFR gene, and if you have it your body can’t break down some key B vitamins like it should. The cascade effect is then a higher risk of heart disease, autoimmune diseases, migraines, cancer, and—because this is the Happy Eating Podcast—mental health conditions. In today’s episode, we break down the MTHFR gene: what it is exactly, what the health effects are if you have it, and a super-simple way to “treat” it.
Supplements Mentioned:
The supplement that Carolyn and her kids take is OrthoMolecular Methyl B12 (contains methyl-folate and B12). This must be ordered through a practitioner which you can do by creating a Fullscript account with us.
Fullscript: https://us.fullscript.com/welcome/happyeating
Receive 20% off this supplement and all other supplement orders by creating a Fullscript account using the link above. Note: We may receive some compensation if you click and purchase using either of the links provided.
References Mentioned:
