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 are Brierley & Carolyn So Perplexed by this week??? 2024 Edition!

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.

If the supplement creatine makes you think of sweaty meatheads at Gold’s Gym, you’re in for a big surprise with this episode. Quite frankly, creatine deserves a totally new marketing campaign. In fact, by the end of recording this episode, we came to the same conclusion as today’s expert guest, Jenna Braddock. Every woman should seriously consider creatine supplements for their physical health, body composition, as well as mental wellness. Jenna not only explains the benefits of creatine, but she also shares exactly how much to take and which type of creatine to buy.

The Connection Between Seasonal Allergies and Mental Health
Seasonal allergies are about to hit their peak, if they haven’t already. Where we are in the Southeast, everything is coated with a thin layer of yellow pollen right now. Stuffy noses, sore throats, irritated eyes, and fatigue are all common for seasonal allergy sufferers. But could those seasonal allergies also be aggravating your mood? In today’s episode, we’re explaining the very real connection between seasonal allergies and mental health.
