@GeorgiaEdeMD Guys, I really worry about the way you are presenting this. Imo, you are hyping it to the roof. I am on a ketogenic diet and it has the tremendous advantage of stopping binge eating and even losing weight on a psychiatric medication that f. up the insuline regulation. 1/n

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.

Mitochondria do more than power our cells: they shape how we think, feel, and experience the world. In this interview, Martin Picard breaks down his new research that illuminates how mitochondria affect brain energy, brain networks, mental health, and ultimately, our quality of life. Dr. Picard walks us through his team's revolutionary brain mapping study, which examined over 700 sections of the human brain to uncover how mitochondria are distributed and specialized by brain region and cell type. The results have profound implications for how we understand, cognitive decline, and psychiatric disorders like depression bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. In this episode, you'll learn: - Why mitochondrial health is essential for brain function - How different brain regions rely on different types of mitochondria - Why people respond so differently to the same metabolic dysfunction - How future scans and biomarkers could help us measure brain energy non-invasively - What it means to think of ourselves as “energetic beings” rather than just biological machines When it comes to metabolic psychiatry, mitochondria are a key player. This research is a huge step towards better understanding these tiny organelles and the role they play in mental health and cognitive function. Expert Featured: Dr. Martin Picard Martin Picard Resources Mentioned: Three Ways to Keep Your Mitochondria Healthy - A human brain map of mitochondrial respiratory capacity and diversity - CMEs Mentioned: Managing Major Mental Illness with Dietary Change: The New Science of Hope - Brain Energy: The Metabolic Theory of Mental Illness - Follow our channel for more information and education from Bret Scher, MD, FACC, including interviews with leading experts in Metabolic Psychiatry.

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.

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.

Ketogenic diets in the ICU? The research is beginning to explore it. In a randomized controlled trial of 40 patients with sepsis, investigators tested a medically supervised ketogenic diet during critical illness. All patients in the ketogenic group achieved stable nutritional ketosis, with no serious adverse events attributed to the intervention. After day four, none of the ketogenic patients required insulin — compared to 35–60% of patients in the control group on any given day. The ketogenic group also experienced: • More ventilator-free days • More vasopressor-free days • More dialysis-free days • More ICU-free days Researchers observed signals consistent with reduced immune dysregulation and lower inflammatory signaling — a meaningful finding in a condition defined by metabolic chaos and systemic inflammation. This was a small, early-phase trial. It does not establish standard of care. But it adds to a growing body of evidence that metabolic therapy may have applications beyond chronic disease — including critical care.

$50 million! That’s the size of a new privately funded donation by the Baszucki Family to launch the Metabolic Health Coalition, a group of scientists and healthcare professionals committed to addressing the root causes of our metabolic health crisis. As both a PhD scientist and new MD and chronic disease patient, this hits home for me. Because one thing I know for certain: the system we’ve built isn’t designed to prioritize metabolic health. It’s optimized for treatments that maintain the business model—pharmaceuticals, procedures, and quick fixes—not long-term root-cause solutions. 🚨This coalition is different. It’s a move toward unbiased research and widespread education—for both clinicians and patients. It’s a serious effort to bring logic, science, and systems-level change to a crisis that’s been swept under the rug for too long. It’s sad that we need disruption, and that true change is being built of the backs of people like me and my friends and colleagues who became passionate about metabolic health because we or a loved one suffered in a dysfunction system. 🚨But that sad truth is also the reason this metabolic health movement is so robust. Enough have suffered. Let’s shake things up. 1⃣First, follow Coalition for Metabolic Health for further updates. 2⃣Then, check out the metabolic health coalition website (👇) 3⃣Finally, share if you care *Some members of the scientific advisory board and supporting experts you may know and love...

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.

Medications and psychotherapy can be useful, but they do not bring enough relief to enough people. We are in desperate need of new approaches. Thankfully, the field of psychiatry is taking a quantum leap forward: the exciting new subspecialties of nutritional and metabolic psychiatry offer brand new ways to think about and treat mental health conditions of all kinds. From brain development and neurotransmitter balance to stress hormones, inflammation, and brain aging—what we eat matters. Let's rethink our approach and explore the transformative potential of nutritional interventions aimed at improving brain metabolism and total brain health. Want to hear the full conversation?

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.
