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.

A lack of sleep is never good for your mood and there’s plenty of research that supports a connection between poor sleep and mental health conditions like anxiety. So what do you do? Take melatonin of course! It’s become one of the most popular supplements to take for adults and kids for sleep, but is it truly helpful, or can it be harmful? And what if you have depression or another mental health condition—is it safe to take melatonin? In this week’s episode we take a closer look at melatonin.
