A plant-based vegetarian diet that is rich in plant proteins, fruits, nuts, seeds—and legumes for some—provides a superior foundation for mental health nutrition and will benefit nearly everyone.
Nuts and seeds, especially nut butter, and the grains quinoa and millet are good sources of protein along with well-soaked and well-cooked beans. The key to a successful plant-based diet is ensuring a diversity of proteins to provide the complement of amino acids necessary for optimal functioning of neurotransmitters in the brain and thus mental health. These percentages are not hard-and-fast rules but may guide choices.
You will know when you feel best, and these ratios can shift due to illness or stress. Thus, the fast metabolizer is what we would call a carnivore, the slow metabolizer would be on the vegetarian end of the spectrum, and the mixture will benefit from a range of foods.
