Today we discuss the question on if your low stomach acid is the cause of your anxiety. Maybe it's new ifnormation, maybe it's not, but deficiencies are a major cause for mental health issues.

When it comes to deficiencies, its not always about what your eating, it's about what you're digesting. Having optimal digestion is a crucial step in making sure that you stay anxiety free for many reasons. One important reason is the fact that despite our bodies needing micronutrients (vitamins + minerals), our bodies aren't great at actually absorbing them.

And, the idea that the body can only absorb, what it digests. We discuss how the 'use it or lose it' principal doesn't only affect muscle, but actually stomach acid as well. So those on a vegan or vegetarian diets aren't more likely to have deficiencies due to the foods they eat (and don't eat), but the fact that their bodies may not be able to absorb even the supplements they are choosing to take, due to a lack of stomach acid.

In today's episode we go over the importance of stomach acid, why you may not have enough, what some signs and symptoms are that it needs support, and of course, what you can do to improve it.
