It’s my book’s paperback birthday! The science of how food and emotional well-being are inseparable—with tons of 2024 updates on pleasure, ultra-processed food, & the gut microbiome. @countrymanpress@w.w.norton
I'm presenting on Food, Pleasure, and Emotional Well-Being at SXSW on Saturday, including breaking news that ultra-processed foods is associated with a 48-53% higher risk of anxiety and mental disorders.
Come join the food-mood revolution!
There is a lot we don't know about how the gut-brain connection happens. However, science shows the quality of what you get out of your digestive system depends on what raw materials — food — you put into it.

I spoke with @washingtonpost ’s Post Reports about the Feast Paradox: Science shows people who eat with others eat more food, but they enjoy better health.
Eating with other people must have some protective effect. This #NewYear, I’m thinking about how I can take advantage of this science.

Nutritional psychology is a new field. It examines the link between what we eat and how we feel. The connections aren't as clear as "Eat chocolate, be happy." We wish. But there's a lot to explore!
Mary Beth Albright aka @mary.beth of @washingtonpost digs a lot deeper than the adage, "You are what you eat" in her book, "Eat & Flourish: How Food Supports Emotional Well-Being." Listen to her entire discussion with @kcrwevan at the link in bio.
