Anxiety and panic attacks are common but can become a serious health issue when chronic. Research has shown that vitamin and mineral deficiencies, particularly low levels of vitamin B6 and iron, may contribute to anxiety and panic disorders. A 2013 study found that patients with panic attacks had significantly lower levels of B6 and iron compared to healthy individuals. These nutrients are important for serotonin production, which plays a key role in anxiety.To support serotonin production, it’s essential to increase intake of foods rich in vitamin B6 (fish, beef liver, potatoes, non-citrus fruits) and iron (red meat, organ meats, beans, spinach). For those with absorption issues or deficiencies, supplementation may be necessary, especially for vegans or vegetarians.In addition to diet, other natural remedies include other B vitamins, Griffonia simplicifolia (which contains 5-HTP), and practices like yoga and meditation. While natural remedies can help manage symptoms, it’s important to consult a doctor for proper treatment of anxiety and panic attacks.
