• Can Junk Food Make Us Crazy?
    Jan 28 2025

    Can our dietary habits be a missing link in the quest for better mental health? Join us for a thought-provoking conversation with Georgia Ede, a Harvard-trained psychiatrist renowned for her pioneering work in nutrition science and brain metabolism. As chronic diseases like obesity, diabetes, and mental health disorders surge, Dr. Ede unravels the hidden connections between our diets and mental well-being. Brace yourself for some bold insights as she challenges the widespread consumption of refined carbohydrates and vegetable oils, revealing their role in inflammation and oxidative stress.

    Explore the groundbreaking potential of the ketogenic diet as we delve into its promising impact on severe mental illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and major depression. Featuring insights from Dr. Albert Dana, a psychiatrist who witnessed transformative changes in his patients on a mildly ketogenic diet, you'll hear about astonishing recovery stories that suggest diet could be a game-changer in psychiatric care. These compelling findings shine a light on the power of nutrition in achieving better mental health outcomes, emphasizing the need for further research and clinical trials.

    We also tackle common nutritional myths and explore whether carbohydrates are truly essential to our diet. With refined carbohydrates producing addictive effects through dopamine receptors, we contrast the ketogenic and Mediterranean diets, highlighting potential benefits and drawbacks. Our conversation underscores the importance of informed dietary choices and professional guidance, especially for those considering a ketogenic lifestyle. With resources like a clinician directory and educational programs available at diagnosisdiet.com, listeners are equipped to embark on their journey to optimal mental health with expert support.
