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.

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”.
What’s Brierley So Over this week? I’m So Over Weekends!

Are you worried about what’s in your tap water? It’s been our radar for some time, but it’s something we’ve never had time to dig into it. But a study that came out this summer made us realize we had to give it a deeper look. Approximately half of America’s tap water contains PFAS, also known as “forever chemicals” that can up your risk of cancer and disrupts hormones. There are other contaminants in our water, too, so what can you do at home to limit our exposure? What filters really work?

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.

Trends in Use of Melatonin Supplements Among US Adults, 1999-2018
Health implications of disrupted circadian rhythms and the potential for daylight as therapy
