In this episode, I sit down with Laurie Hammer to explore how amino acids support brain health by nourishing the body's neurotransmitters. We discuss how foundational nutrition, protein, healthy fats, minerals, and a healthy microbiome may influence behavior, sleep, emotional regulation, and overall brain function. We also share practical ideas parents can begin using at home to help build healthier habits that support their child's development.
