How I Overcame Anxiety Without Medication

Seven years ago

My health was in shambles

My successful career tainted by me running to the bathroom & not sleeping

Anxiety ruled my life

Luckily

I managed to pull myself out of the depths of Hell

Without a single medication

Here’s how I did it so you can too

1- Stop drinking booze

Alcohol abuse wrecks your body

It destroys your sleep and damages your stomach/gut lining

The more you’re drinking

The less you’re recovering and absorbing the nutrients from your food pic.twitter.com/PFtc1KpkE7

I drank a lot in my youth

and eventually got so depleted that my body gave up on me

It's only a matter of time until it catches up to you

If you're trying to kickstart your healing journey

Then take a break from the booze

2- Fix your diet

You’re the sum of the foods you eat

Processed foods, sugars & grains are stealing your vitality

They inflame you

They promote malabsorption

You’re never told how these foods deplete your body of nutrients pic.twitter.com/0phu7d0Hfj

The amount of toxins added to your food supply doesn’t help your cause either

Additives and glyphosate kill your gut microbiome

Your immune system crashes and you get sicker

We eat for convenience now rather than for health

You MUST change the toxic Frankenfoods you're consuming to the following:

Plenty of game meat/quality beef
Raw honey/dairy
Some organ meat
Lots of seafood
Eat local and in season
Fermented foods
Use animal fats to cook
Plenty of eggs
Organic fruits and vegetables pic.twitter.com/lo3BNsyFdQ

3- Heal your gut first

Your gut is your greatest detoxifier

70% of your immune system is found there

and it's where you absorb the foods you eat

A destroyed gut f*cks you up

Mine got so bad that it completely messed up my mental health pic.twitter.com/tyNPwXxjeW

Your gut microbiome affects your:

Digestion/Absorption of food
Brain chemistry (Mood)
Immunity

I discovered that mold and parasites co-infections were a big reason for my mood and sleep troubles

It was only when I optimized my gut microbiome that I started to feel better

So if you've tried different supplements for sleep and stress but none seem to work

You need to work on healing your gut terrain first

— John Constas (@JohnConstas) April 13, 2023

Here are a few ways to start healing your gut:

Fasting
Fulvic/Humic Acid
Get enough sunlight
Optimize sleep quality
Try soil-based probiotics
Bone broth (Glutamine + Glycine)
Eat pomegranate & fermented food
Antimicrobial herbs (parasites/Mold/viruses) pic.twitter.com/X6Y7EoTpJ5

4- Use supplements to accelerate healing

While nutrition and strong habits are foundational

Quality supplements are the fast-forward button to your healing journey

As I mentioned earlier

Your supplements will work way better when your gut is healthy

I yo-yoed like crazy trying to fix my anxiety and sleep

Because I didn't do enough work on the gut first

— John Constas (@JohnConstas) April 13, 2023

Different supplement formulas with the following were game changers for my gut health

TUDCA
Berberine
Clove Bud
Colostrum
Glutamine
Milk thistle
Neem Leaf
Thyme leaf
Black Seed Oil
Black Walnut Hull
Marshmallow root
Fulvic/Humic Acid
Zeolite Clinoptilolite
Mimosa Pudica Seed

When it comes to stress/sleep

These supplements are going to give you the best bang for your buck

B-complex
Glycine (sleep)
Phosphatidylserine
Inositol (Sleep/OCD)
L-Theanine (anxiety)
Magnesium Glycinate/Malatehttps://t.co/C9pb7ZYKmA

5- Sun exposure & more time in nature

One of the biggest reasons you're not feeling your best is being inside all day

Artificial indoor light from your screens:

Increases your stress
Destroys sleep quality
Slows down your metabolism

You need to be outside more pic.twitter.com/kfeEvJmxE1

— John Constas (@JohnConstas) April 13, 2023

Once I made a conscious effort to spend more time outdoors

I started feeling better

Sunlight is your most powerful free tool during your healing journey

The sun:

Energizes you
Boosts your immunity
Synchronizes your body clock (sleep)

— John Constas (@JohnConstas) April 13, 2023

If you're living in a city

Get out whenever you can

Make the trip to the woods, beach & mountains

The sounds/silence of Nature are therapeutic & a must pic.twitter.com/pXbQybRee4

These are some of the most powerful ways that'll change your life for the better

It is never too late to start and if you begin with all the stuff I just mentioned

You're going to get to where you want to be FASTER

— John Constas (@JohnConstas) April 13, 2023

sleeping like crap & get them the best snooze in the next 20 weeks
