Metabolic Psychiatry & The Ketogenic Connection: Dr. Matt Bernstein on Food, Mental Health & Resilience

In this episode of Unstress Health with Dr. Ron Ehrlich, psychiatrist and educator Dr. Matt Bernstein shares groundbreaking insights on the connection between nutrition, metabolism, and mental health. From his personal family journey through PANS/PANDAS and Lyme disease to pioneering holistic mental health programs at Accord, Dr. Bernstein explains how diet, lifestyle, and circadian rhythm alignment can radically transform psychiatric treatment.

Mental health challenges affect over a billion people worldwide, yet conventional psychiatry often focuses only on symptom suppression. Dr. Matt Bernstein offers a refreshing approach, integrating metabolic health, ketogenic nutrition, and lifestyle medicine to help patients move beyond medication dependency and towards true healing.

Together, Dr. Ron and Dr. Bernstein explore how food can be medicine, the science of ketones and brain health, and the four pillars of metabolic psychiatry: diet, exercise, mindfulness, and circadian rhythm alignment.
