A jittery mind is not always a character flaw. Often it is the echo of meals that spike, deplete, and inflame-leaving your nervous system on edge and your thoughts in a rush. This book shows how to use foods for anxiety in a deliberate way: stabilising glucose, repleting magnesium for sleep and calm, lowering inflammatory tone with an anti-inflammatory diet for anxiety, and feeding the gut so the brain stops scanning for threat. You will learn when adaptogens for stress help, when they do not, and how to build low glycaemic meals for focus that keep energy steady through difficult days. With plain-spoken science and everyday kitchen tactics, it turns the gut brain axis diet from a trend into a repeatable routine-supported by omega 3 for anxiety and a few well-chosen ferments. Clear meal templates, shopping heuristics, and timing strategies make circadian eating for better sleep practical, even on a crowded schedule. - Understand nutrition for cortisol reduction without fads - Build a calm plate that works across cuisines and budgets - Create defaults for travel, restaurants, and stressful weeks For readers who have tried mindfulness apps and still feel wired, this is a calmer biology by design-through ordinary food, chosen and timed well.
