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.

We’ve grown up thinking that fluoride is that nutrient that can do no harm. And if we don’t have it, we’ll end up with a mouth full of cavities. It seems no one has questioned that line of thinking or why fluoride was even added to our water supply. That is, until recently. In this episode we talk with Dr. Mark Burhenne, a functional dentist, about fluoride:
When is fluoride good for you?
When is fluoride bad for you?
Plus, key ways to lower your fluoride exposure.

Fruits and vegetables are two foods whose health value and necessity in the diet are rarely questioned, and this is for good reason since research consistently suggests that the nutrients and compounds in them improve physical and mental health. But is this true for all fruits and vegetables? Does eating tomatoes, white potatoes, eggplant, and others in the nightshade family do more harm than good?

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”.

At the end of September, the US Preventive Services Task Force made the recommendation that all adults under the age of 65 years be screened for anxiety by their healthcare provider. Why is this newsworthy? It includes screening all adults including those who do not have a diagnosed mental health disorder and are not showing any signs or symptoms of anxiety. This same recommendation was made for kids ages 8-18 earlier in April.
In this episode, we’re diving into why these recommendations were made, access to treatment, and our thoughts on if this will have an impact when it comes to helping friends and family with anxiety issues.

Did you know that it’s normal for your circle of friends to change every 7 years? Are you worried about the number of your friendships shrinking? Navigating adult friendships can be very different from when we were on the playground in elementary school. In today’s episode we’re talking with Danielle Bayard Jackson, a friendship coach and TikTok influencer. And if you’re thinking a friendship coach sounds even more frivolous than a life coach, be prepared to think otherwise after you listen to this episode!

Electrolyte waters seem to be pretty much everywhere these days. And now electrolyte powders (that you mix into drinks) are popping up more and more. So, this begs the question: are they worth the hype? Can getting in extra electrolytes really help how you feel, think, or even influence whether you’re hungry or not? We brought back registered dietitian Amanda Nighbert to help us sift fact from fiction. Let’s dive in!
