The link between metabolic and mental health with Dr Adrian Lopresti and Dr Georgia Ede

This week on the podcast, psychiatrist Dr Georgia Ede joins fx Medicine ambassador Dr Adrian Lopresti to explore the profound role that diet, blood glucose, and insulin resistance play in mental health management. Together they explore the role of diet in complex mental health conditions, looking at the potential inflammatory role of the typical Western and the way it may contribute to symptom intensity for patients. Dr Ede shares her clinical experience in adopting low carbohydrate diets in conjunction with medications, to safely and effectively mitigate symptoms, supporting patients with a holistic lens, and ultimately managing both mental and metabolic health, with long term effective outcomes. Dr Ede stresses the importance of individualised care when it comes to effective dietary protocols, sharing how healthcare professionals may adopt these practices to support patients through dietary interventions for better mental and metabolic wellbeing.
