Can metabolic therapy play a transformative role in the treatment of serious mental illness?

In this episode of The Metabolic Link, host Victoria Field speaks with Dr. Erin Bellamy - a Chartered Psychologist, Metabolic Psychiatry Practitioner, and CEO of IKRT - about the clinical application of ketogenic metabolic therapy (KMT) for psychiatric disorders. With over a decade of experience and a PhD focused on ketogenic diets for depression, Dr. Bellamy offers deep insight into the mechanisms driving psychiatric disease - including brain hypometabolism, mitochondrial dysfunction, neuroinflammation, and insulin resistance - and how KMT targets these shared biological pathways.

This conversation explores real-world implementation of ketogenic therapy in patients with diagnoses such as PTSD, ADHD, binge eating disorder, and schizoaffective disorder. Dr. Bellamy also shares her recently published case study demonstrating transdiagnostic remission using KMT, along with the clinical protocols, macronutrient ratios, and outcomes she’s seeing in her group and one-on-one programs.

Whether you’re a psychiatrist, psychologist, or healthcare professional interested in emerging metabolic therapies for mental health, this episode offers valuable clinical and translational insights into a rapidly evolving field.
