Kim Raine explains how protein and healthy fats support dopamine and serotonin production in the brain. Most people eat too many carbs and too little protein, chasing quick energy hits. Shifting to more protein and fat helps your body make neurotransmitters instead of crashing.

So I'm a big advocate of looking after yourself outside and nutrition as well, eating diets that are rich in protein because protein's a precursor to serotonin, to dopamine. It really does help fire up our neurotransmitters. And for so many of us, our diets tend to be higher in the carbohydrates than they are in the fats and the protein. And those are the two things that our bodies really need. I mean, we need the carbs as well, but very often we are going for quick fixes and quick hits of energy.
