Fix Your Diet, Fix Your Mental Health 🍗
Sometimes I cheat on my diet.
I eat “normal people” food like seed oils, processed junk, weird ingredients like glucose syrup, and so on.
And every single time, I feel like 💩.
My normal diet is a 16 ingredient elimination diet I’ve tested over time.
No sugar apart from raw honey and half a banana.
Mostly meat and eggs. One meal a day.
The difference is massive.
When I go off it and eat things like croissants or store bought bread, my mind instantly changes
Negative thoughts come in, doubts, acne, brain fog, all of it.
It’s not placebo.
Your gut literally makes most of your dopamine and serotonin, so when you mess with your gut, you mess with your mind.
And if you’re an entrepreneur, here’s the scary part:
When my diet slips, my focus collapses.
I can’t get in the zone.
I start overthinking:
“Will this ever work?”
“What if people laugh at my content?”
Your diet doesn’t just affect your mental health. It affects your business too.
Action Steps
1. Try an Elimination Diet
It’s hard, but it’s one of the best things you’ll ever do.
Imagine knowing exactly how every ingredient affects your energy, focus, mood, and skin for life.
Here’s how:
- Pick one ingredient, like beef or eggs. Eat only that and water for a week.
- After a week, add one ingredient, like butter.
- Notice how you feel. If butter gives you brain fog or spots, cut it. Try ghee instead and compare.
Once you’ve built your baseline (the combo that gives you zero bad symptoms), you don’t have to add new ingredients every week.
You can add multiple things, then compare how you feel to your baseline.
If something throws you off, remove it and test again.
2. The Adherence Rule
Be self aware.
If you choose to go off your diet, just accept the consequences. Maybe a bit of brain fog, acne, or low mood.
That’s fine. Life is to be enjoyed.
I don’t want to follow a strict 16 ingredient plan forever either.
Sometimes I eat out, have family food, or enjoy something that doesn’t fully agree with me.
But I know what it costs, and I accept that trade off consciously, of you want to break your diet just be self aware and you have my blessing.
