The Natural Health Podcast – Détails, épisodes et analyse

Anxiety isn’t just psychological it can be biochemical.

In this episode of The Natural Health Podcast, Mihaela breaks down the GAD gene the critical gene responsible for converting glutamate (excitatory) into GABA (calming). When this pathway is disrupted, it can contribute to anxiety, overstimulation, poor emotional regulation, and stress sensitivity.

You’ll learn:
• What the GAD gene actually does
• How glutamate and GABA balance affects anxiety
• What happens when the GAD enzyme is too fast or too slow
• How genetic variations may predispose you to anxiety disorders
• Why vitamin B6 is essential for GAD function
• Natural ways to support GABA production
• Lifestyle factors that may worsen or improve gene expression

If you’ve ever wondered why you feel wired, overwhelmed, or like your nervous system won’t switch off — this episode connects the dots between genetics, neurotransmitters, and holistic health.

🎧 Listen now to understand your brain at a deeper level.
