Episode notes

If you are taking medication, please work with your health care provider to make any adjustments or if you want to consider trying to get off a medication. We actually have a lot of data on this and a lot of evidence for this. So before I go into more detail, I just want to say, because I'm going to say some stuff that might upset people and make people feel like maybe I want to get off this medicine now.

Discover the compelling link between mental health and metabolic dysfunction with Harvard psychiatrist, Dr. Chris Palmer and author of the book Brain Energy: A Revolutionary Breakthrough in Understanding Mental Health--and Improving Treatment for Anxiety, Depression, OCD, PTSD, and More.

After years of treating patients, he stumbled upon a paradigm shift - a schizophrenia patient's symptoms went into remission with a ketogenic diet, pushing him toward the metabolic roots of mental health. Could mental illnesses be metabolic disorders caused by dysfunctional mitochondria in the brain?

Join us to explore this revolutionary breakthrough, blending diet, lifestyle changes and metabolic interventions, and how it can redefine treatment for millions globally suffering from mental disorders.
