🧠What if so much of mental illness comes from metabolic health, not just “chemical imbalances”?
This week on The Evolution of Medicine, I sit down with Dr. Matthew Bernstein to explore metabolic psychiatry—a field that’s changing how we understand depression, bipolar disorder, and even treatment-resistant psychosis.
✨ In this episode, you’ll learn:
Why conditions like depression and schizophrenia often have roots in insulin resistance, inflammation, and mitochondrial dysfunction
How ketogenic diets can give your brain a more efficient fuel, reduce neuroinflammation, and stabilize neurons
Practical strategies to support recovery beyond medications—nutrition, circadian alignment, and lifestyle support
