Top 9 Nutrients to Ease Anxiety AND Support Gut Health

There are many amino acids, nutrients and herbs that provide anxiety relief

(often very quickly) AND also support gut health, digestion and/or the microbiome. The gut-brain connection is important because this can impact the brain’s neurotransmitter levels, improving mood and reducing anxiety even further.

Trudy has gathered what she considers the top 9 that have recent evidence-based research supporting their use and also offer clinical benefits. You may even find some of their benefits surprising!

#1 Eases physical anxiety and tension AND reduces visceral pain in the gut
#2 Eases mental anxiety, worry and ruminations AND improves gastrointestinal motility
#3 Helps with blood sugar stability/increases GABA levels AND repairs leaky gut/prevents infections
#4 Improves mood, reduces anxiety and improves cognition AND reverses the liver-toxic effects of acetaminophen
#5 Is calming and improves sleep AND improves motility and reduces abdominal pain
#6 Contributes to serotonin production and heals a leaky blood brain barrier AND improves nutrient absorption and reduces IBS pain
#7 Eases depression caused by chronic unpredictable stress AND increases bile flow by 250%
#8 Is as effective for anxiety as widely-used anti-anxiety medications AND relieves smooth muscle spasms in the small intestine
#9 Eases anxiety by modulating GABA levels AND eases digestive spasms, gas and upset stomach

Each one of these is also discussed in more detail in one or more interviews on The Anxiety Summit 5: Gut-Brain Axis.
