Episode 2643:
Meagan Drillinger, writing for Healthline, highlights four common foods that can exacerbate anxiety: alcohol, caffeine, added sugars, and refined carbs. She explains how these foods impact the body and mind, offering practical alternatives to help manage anxiety more effectively through dietary choices.

Quotes to ponder:
"Although it may seem like it calms your nerves, alcohol can have a negative impact on hydration and sleep, both of which can trigger anxiety symptoms when suppressed."
"High levels of caffeine can not only increase anxiety and nervousness, but also decrease the production of the feel-good chemical serotonin in the body, causing a depressed mood."
"Added sugars cause your blood sugar to go on a rollercoaster ride of spikes and crashes, and with it, your energy also goes up and down. When blood sugar crashes, your mood sours and anxiety levels can spike."
