Liu Boren (Chief Operating Officer, Functional Medicine Outpatient Center, Jingying Clinic, Taipei) Chicken soup for mind, spirit and nutrition Generally speaking, the medical community will think that the treatment of diseases depends entirely on standard procedures. But I know from the case of practicing medicine that heart, spirit and nutrition are also very important. So I began to pay attention to the psychological state of each patient, not just to arrange a standard course of treatment. I will explore this person's psychology, understand the source of his stress, and pay special attention to nutrition. A very important key must be added to the treatment of diseases: stress relief+nutritional intervention. Next, I will share some personal experiences related to diet and nutrition. Happy food I try to eat seven or eight servings of vegetables and drink soybean milk and two servings of fruit every day, because the fiber and oligosaccharide in it will affect intestinal bacteria and establish a happy intestinal physiology, which is closely related to a healthy brain, so it is a happy food. I also supplement probiotic powder and various anthocyanin fiber powder every day to maintain the health of the intestine, because the intestine is the second brain of human beings. Editor's recommendation: Although the diet should be balanced, it is the most recommended vegetable king by the famous doctor Liu Boren. 99% of the symbiotic bacteria in the human body live in the intestine, and the function of the gastrointestinal tract will interact with the brain-brain axis through the intestine. Whether the intestine is unobstructed or not will affect our mood. In addition, foods rich in amino acids, such as chicken, fish, beans, eggs, yogurt, bananas, whole grains and so on. It is also a very important key to the formation of neurotransmitters, especially tryptamine, which is an essential amino acid for the human body and can help produce serotonin and help people feel happy and relaxed; If the serotonin in the brain is insufficient, it is prone to mania and sleep well. Another "happy hormone" dopamine also needs the help of amino acids. Dopamine is responsible for the mood of the brain and transmits information of excitement and happiness to produce happiness and excitement. Foods rich in vitamin B are also related to emotional stability, including whole grains, nuts, meat, Qingjiang vegetables, cauliflower and spinach. All these contain B vitamins. However, because I am worried about the lack of B vitamins in food, I will supplement B vitamins after breakfast. (Editor's recommendation: repel insomnia, tryptamine acid and B family let you sleep well! Don't forget that good oil is good for brain health. Deep-sea fish oil rich in omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA, and ALA in flaxseed oil are also good oils to fight depression.
