“Ever wonder why your gut issues make you anxious, depressed, or in pain? These 6 chemicals
made in your gut can hijack your mood and trigger nerve pain—here’s how to balance them
naturally!”As a doctor who’s helped thousands with gut, mood, and nerve issues, I can tell you
your gut is a chemical factory for your brain and nerves.Chemical #1 – Serotonin:90% is made
in your gut. Low serotonin = more pain, anxiety, and depression. Boost it with fermented foods
and sunlight.Chemical #2 – GABA:A calming neurotransmitter made by gut bacteria. Low
GABA = more nerve pain and anxiety. Support it with magnesium and probiotic-rich
foods.Chemical #3 – Histamine:Produced by certain bacteria and foods. High histamine =
more inflammation, anxiety, and nerve pain. Lower it by avoiding aged cheeses, wine, and
processed meats.Chemical #4 – Dopamine:Controls motivation and pleasure. Low dopamine =
fatigue, low mood, and slow healing. Boost it with protein, exercise, and gut-healing
foods.Chemical #5 – Acetylcholine:Essential for memory and nerve signaling. Low
acetylcholine = brain fog and poor nerve function. Support it with choline-rich foods (eggs, fish,
broccoli).Chemical 6 – Short-Chain Fatty Acids (SCFAs):Made when you eat fiber. SCFAs
reduce inflammation and support nerve repair. Boost them with veggies, beans, and resistant
starches.When you support your gut to balance these chemicals, many people see better mood,
less pain, and improved focus.Eat more fiber, fermented foods, and choline-rich foods. Move
daily and get sunlight. Which gut chemical do you want to learn more about? Comment serotonin,GABA, histamine, dopamine, acetylcholine,or ‘SCFA’ and I’ll make a video on it!
