Let’s talk about the best foods for anxiety. First off, are stress and anxiety the same thing? Not really. You could have anxiety along with stress and even panic attacks, but they’re not all the same.

Stress vs. panic attacks vs. anxiety:
• Stress - External pressure that’s out of your control.
• Panic - High levels of severe fear.
• Anxiety - Worry and fixation on problems without a solution.

Everyone has their specific limit or tolerance for anxiety. But, if you’re deficient in certain nutrients, your stress and anxiety tolerance will be low.

These foods won’t fix the problems causing anxiety or get rid of anxiety, but they will help you cope with anxiety much better.

Microbes greatly influence your nervous system and regulate your hormones. Your microbiome makes neurotransmitters like serotonin, dopamine, GABA, and noradrenaline. Your microbes also make essential vitamins, including B vitamins, that help you deal with stress and anxiety.

Common comfort foods and drinks like carbs and alcohol can deplete vitamin B1, which is an important vitamin for dealing with anxiety.

Sugar and carbohydrates also feed a type of microbe that doesn’t produce anything beneficial for you and, instead, gives you inflammation. Ultimately, these foods cause more anxiety and stress.

The two best foods for anxiety, stress, and panic attacks:
1. Probiotic foods
• Kefir
• Kimchi
• Sauerkraut
• Pickles
• Raw vegetables

2. Nutritional yeast (non-fortified)
