Could it be that only 5-7% of individuals with mental health conditions in the U.S. receive highly effective treatment? Let that sink in. Our medical system is failing to deliver effective evidence-based, solutions to millions of people that are relying on it for care. Harvard psychiatrist Chris Palmer, MD, author of Brain Energy, believes we can do better. Dr. Palmer has been at the forefront of metabolic psychiatry, an innovative approach targeting the root causes of mental illness, like metabolic dysfunction and brain energy deficits. Emerging strategies like ketogenic therapy are showing promise, offering new possibilities for recovery and transforming mental health care as we know it. There is an urgent need for a paradigm shift in psychiatry and in this interview, Dr. Palmer highlights how metabolic therapies are opening new doors for recovery. We can do better. And we must.

If I knew then what I know now, I would have spared my daughter from the endless failed attempts to help her find relief from what was diagnosed as Bipolar Disorder. Family therapists. Thera-play sessions. Extra supports. Medications that didn’t work for long or often made her feel worse. Euphoria that would end in deep sadness, fits of complete rage, and self harm. Coping mechanisms that never worked. Being held in a secure room at the hospital. Being transported from hospital to hospital in the back of an RCMP cruiser and stopping for chicken nuggets and fries on the way 🤦🏻‍♀️ A 16 week stay at the inpatient children’s intensive services program where she chewed the rubber off of the walls of the secure room. Manic episodes that would last days and weeks. Hallucinations during some of her worst episodes. Feeling out of control while living inside her body. Expert doctors who didn’t know what else to try to help her because no one seems to know what causes mental illness and at 11 years old she was out of treatment options. If I knew I could have changed how we were eating and it could have changed her life this dramatically, I would go back and spare her every minute of it. It only took 3 days of ketogenic therapies for her to feel relief that she had never known. The rest is history. Ketogenic Metabolic Therapies absolutely saved her life. While we wait for more science to show how incredible the addition of metabolic therapies to our health and mental health systems can be, we get to be living evidence of its power every single day. This recovery might sound crazy, but the first ones to find something new that challenges an old model or belief system, always sound a little crazy at first. But we are just getting started and I can’t wait to see where the metabolic health and psychiatry field is at in 10 years, but I also can’t wait to see where we are. The sky is the limit.

A seismic shift is underway in psychiatry, moving beyond talk therapy and pharmaceuticals to target the very foundation of mental health: metabolic function. Leading this revolution are pioneers like Dr. Christopher Palmer of Harvard Psychiatry. For over two decades, he has focused on the most challenging cases—patients resistant to psychotropic medications. His groundbreaking protocol is strikingly simple, yet profoundly effective: a ketogenic diet. By placing patients into ketosis through a diet of meat and low-starch vegetables, Dr. Palmer has documented the reversal of conditions once deemed lifelong, including: • Major Depression • Anxiety Disorders • Bipolar Disorder • And in rare cases, even Schizophrenia The mechanism? While the official explanation points to improved mitochondrial health, a compelling alternative theory suggests that removing carbohydrates strengthens the immune system. This allows the body to finally subdue chronic, undiagnosed infections that may be driving neurological dysfunction. By halting the constant processing of sugars, the body can redirect its resources toward regeneration and fighting these underlying inflammatory and infectious threats. This isn't just a dietary trend; it's a paradigm shift. It reframes "mental illness" as a potential symptom of metabolic and immune system dysregulation. The work of Dr. Palmer, alongside researchers like Georgia Ede and Stanford's Annelise Barron, is offering not just management, but the possibility of genuine recovery. The future of mental health treatment may not be in a pill bottle, but on our plates.

What if We're Using GLP-1 Medications All Wrong? Drugs like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro are transforming the landscape of medical weight loss, but could their side effects be a sign that we’re not harnessing their full therapeutic potential? In this eye-opening conversation, Dr. Ben Bikman (Benjamin Bikman), metabolic health researcher and professor at BYU, joins Dr. Bret Scher (Bret Scher, MD) to explore a powerful new framework: using GLP-1 medications at low doses and for short durations to help curb carbohydrate cravings, break addictive eating cycles, and support long-term metabolic health. Rather than prescribing high doses indefinitely, Dr. Bikman proposes a more targeted approach: - Microdosing GLP-1s to enhance satiety and reduce cravings for processed carbs - Using the medication as a temporary metabolic tool to support transitions to lower-carb diets - Reducing long-term risks such as muscle loss, mood changes, and diminishing effectiveness - Emphasizing the importance of habit change, insulin regulation, and muscle preservation This conversation reimagines GLP-1s not as a lifelong solution, but as a catalyst for sustainable, low-insulin lifestyles, aligned with ketogenic and metabolic therapies. 📌 Could a 90-day microdosing protocol replace years of medication? Learn how this metabolic-first strategy could empower patients to reclaim their health, without becoming dependent on medication for life. #GLP1 #Ozempic #Wegovy #Mounjaro #BenBikman #MetabolicHealth #Microdosing #InsulinResistance #LowCarbDiet #KetogenicTherapy #MedicalWeightLoss #BretScher #MetabolicMind Expert Featured: Dr. Benjamin Bikman Benjamin Bikman Papers/Articles Mentioned: Follow our channel for more information and education from Bret Scher, MD, FACC, including interviews with leading experts in Metabolic Psychiatry.

Forget everything you thought you knew about the root of mental health. What if conditions like anxiety and bipolar disorder weren't just a chemical imbalance in the brain, but a microbial one in the gut? Pioneering gastroenterologist Dr. Sabine Hazan is revealing this revolutionary paradigm. Through advanced DNA sequencing, she has identified distinct microbial "signatures" in the gut for different mental health conditions. She sees a specific pattern of overgrown and depleted microbes in patients with anxiety, and a completely different one in those with bipolar disorder. This discovery led her to a radical question: Is mental health, at its core, a gut dysbiosis? Dr. Hazan is now pioneering a gutsy, art-of-medicine approach. By strategically using nutrients and nutraceuticals to feed the "good" microbes and starve the "bad," she aims to rebalance the entire ecosystem. The proof is in the results: as her patients' symptoms improve, follow-up sequencing shows the problematic microbial signatures normalize. The overgrown microbes recede, and the missing ones return. This isn't about lifelong pharmaceutical management. It's about attaining a true cure and restoring a life of freedom. Dr. Hazan’s work suggests that the future of mental health treatment may not be in a pill for the brain, but in healing the garden within us.

I sound mad, because I am. For 6 years, my daughter needlessly suffered from treatment resistant “severe mental illness” that I now know was metabolic and mitochondrial dysfunction that I could have fixed from day one on my own at home and in my kitchen. It was never Bipolar Disorder (and hallucinations during manic episodes), never OCD, never anxiety, not depression, not ADHD. It was her body screaming out for help. This book was published in 1975. 50 years ago!! In August of 2024, I found metabolic therapies. I changed our diet. I threw out ALL of my groceries and went to the farm. 7 days later, she was off her afternoon meds. 3 weeks after that, we found Brain Energy and added the ketogenic diet to our metabolic therapies. 3 days after that, she woke up an entirely new child. She was off all medication within the next 2 weeks and in remission ever since. From treatment resistant to living her best life in 6 weeks. We are built from food. Not pharmaceuticals. Get curious. Your child’s life might just depend on it.

There’s been a lot of buzz—and confusion—about the new Keto-CTA study, examining plaque progression in Lean Mass Hyper-Responders (LMHRs). Much of the social media debate has centered on whether high LDL on keto is safe or dangerous, driven largely by how to interpret the supplemental table comparing this study to others on LDL and plaque progression. In this episode of the Metabolic Mind Podcast, we sit down with Dr. Matthew Budoff, a world-renowned cardiologist, cardiac CT researcher, and the study's lead investigator, to discuss the the supplemental table, what the plaque markers mean, and how this fits into the discussion of high- vs -low-risk plaque progression. In this episode, we cover: ✅ What PAV (Percent Atheroma Volume) is, what it actually measures, and why it matters ✅ Why a 50% increase in plaque may sound scary, but can be deceiving ✅ The difference between “treatment-naive” and “treated” participants ✅ What the Miami Heart Study comparison reveals about keto, LDL, and plaque ✅ Why LDL alone may not tell the whole story about heart disease risk ✅ How some high-risk individuals may still benefit from statins and other therapies This study doesn’t answer whether keto causes heart disease or not. Instead, it shows that high LDL on a ketogenic diet is not a reliable predictor of plaque progression across all individuals. What is predictive? The presence of existing plaque. 💡 Key takeaway: Relying on surrogate markers of heart disease, like LDL and ApoB, is not the best way to assess heart disease risk in all populations. If you're concerned about how elevated LDL may be affecting your heart health, the best next step is to speak with your doctor about cardiac imaging to directly assess plaque and gain a clearer picture of your individual risk.

In this episode of the Metabolic Mind Podcast, we sit down with Dr. Matthew Budoff, a world-renowned cardiologist, cardiac CT researcher, and the study's lead investigator, to discuss the the supplemental table, what the plaque markers mean, and how this fits into the discussion of high- vs -low-risk plaque progression. In this episode, we cover: ✅ What PAV (Percent Atheroma Volume) is, what it actually measures, and why it matters ✅ Why a 50% increase in plaque may sound scary, but can be deceiving ✅ The difference between “treatment-naive” and “treated” participants ✅ What the Miami Heart Study comparison reveals about keto, LDL, and plaque ✅ Why LDL alone may not tell the whole story about heart disease risk ✅ How some high-risk individuals may still benefit from statins and other therapies This study doesn’t answer whether keto causes heart disease or not. Instead, it shows that high LDL on a ketogenic diet is not a reliable predictor of plaque progression across all individuals. What is predictive? The presence of existing plaque. 💡 Key takeaway: Relying on surrogate markers of heart disease, like LDL and ApoB, is not the best way to assess heart disease risk in all populations. If you're concerned about how elevated LDL may be affecting your heart health, the best next step is to speak with your doctor about cardiac imaging to directly assess plaque and gain a clearer picture of your individual risk.

The ketogenic diet is powerful brain medicine. Consider these observations from a study I co-authored, conducted by my friend Dr. Albert Danan, a psychiatrist practicing in Toulouse, France. 31 adults with "treatment-resistant" schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, or major depression volunteered to try a mildly #ketogenic whole-foods diet in the hospital, under close medical and psychiatric supervision. ✨ All 28 patients who stayed on the diet for more than two weeks experienced substantial improvements in mental and physical health ✨ 43% achieved complete clinical remission from their psychiatric condition ✨ 64% left the hospital on less psychiatric medication ✨ Their general metabolic health also improved dramatically You do not see outcomes like this in conventional inpatient psychiatric care.

#LindsayClancy knew what she did was wrong and at the hospital she asked for a lawyer ‼️ In comparison THIS is what a mother in a psychotic state looks like: Ruth miller, an Amish woman, drowned her 4 year old son to give him to God. You can see for yourself that she isn’t aware of any wrongdoing and keeps on talking about a big fish at the bottom of the lake. Experts concluded she was suffering from a severe mental illness (descriptions varied, including bipolar disorder or schizophrenia-related issues) that prevented her from understanding the wrongfulness of her actions .She was found not guilty by reason of insanity and committed to Heartland Behavioral Healthcare, Ohio.

RFK Jr. blasts the New York Times for lying about how food impacts mental health. “This (food) affects mental health despite what the New York Times says.” “There is 75 years of peer-reviewed science that show that improving your health is going to improve even the symptoms of schizophrenia, of ADHD, of bipolar disorder.” “When you give people in prisons real food, the violence goes down by 40%.” “Use of restraints goes down by 75%.” “The food is affecting everything that we do.” “This is warfare.” “If a foreign enemy or adversary did this to our country, poisoned them at scale, we’d consider it an act of war.” “And we are poisoning our children at scale at a cellular level, and it needs to stop.”

In August of last year, I heard Secretary Kennedy speak about Good Energy during a press conference. I ordered the book, dove in head first, and after 7 days, my daughter needed to come off her afternoon medication she was taking in attempt to manage bipolar disorder. This was the first improvement in 6 years! Then, one year ago today, we were watching the Nutrition Roundtable to see what more we could learn from Casey Means, MD on our family’s metabolic health journey. Little did we know, our lives were about to change forever. I think our whole world might have stopped for a minute when Chris Palmer, MD spoke. We changed her diet to a ketogenic diet, and within days, she was an entirely new person in all of the best ways. This has been the best year of her life, and it’s been the best year for our family, too. She thanks me almost every single day, but today - it’s Dr. Palmer day in our house and she wanted to thank all of you herself! ❤️ So - we all thank you, from the bottom of our hearts.
