You’re not crazy. You’re not weak. And you’re definitely not alone.
If you’ve been feeling snappy, foggy, anxious, or like you’re riding a hormonal rollercoaster—you’re probably just missing some key nutrients that your brain literally needs to function.
Because here’s the truth no one tells overwhelmed moms: Your brain runs on nutrients. When you’re low, it shows up in your mood, your energy, your patience (or lack of it), and your ability to think clearly.
1. Magnesium – The Calm Mineral
Magnesium is like the chill friend your nervous system is begging for. It helps you relax, sleep better, and keep anxiety in check.
Problem is—most moms are magnesium-deficient, thanks to stress, poor soil quality, and (let’s be honest) caffeine and wine.
Signs of low magnesium:
- Feeling wired but tired
- Poor sleep
- Tight muscles and racing thoughts
2. Vitamin B6 – The Mood Regulator
Vitamin B6 plays a major role in producing serotonin and dopamine—your feel-good, calm-the-f*ck-down brain chemicals. Without enough B6, your body can’t make them.
Low B6 can feel like:
- Constant irritability
- Mood swings for no reason
- That “I want to scream but also cry” feeling
3. Vitamin B12 – The Brain Fog Fixer
If you’re always tired no matter how much coffee you drink, B12 might be the missing piece.
It supports energy production, memory, and focus. It also helps with nervous system function—aka the part of your body that’s fried from mom life.
Signs of low B12:
- Exhaustion
- Brain fog
- Feeling low or “off”
So No, Your Brain’s Not Broken—It’s Depleted
Motherhood is beautiful, but let’s be real—it’s also draining. You give and give, and your body starts running on fumes.
That doesn’t mean you need to power through. It means you need to rebuild your foundation.
🧠 Support your brain.
💊 Replenish your nutrients.
❤️ Take care of you, so you can show up for everything else.
