Nutrition-Based Approaches as an Alternative to Psychiatric Medications, Part 1 January 9, 2024 The most powerful way to change brain chemistry is with food, because that’s where brain chemicals come from in the first place. Georgia Ede, MD, is a Harvard-trained psychiatrist specializing in nutrition science, brain metabolism, and mental health. She discusses her new book, "Change Your Diet, Change Your Mind: A Powerful Plan to Improve Mood, Overcome Anxiety, and Protect Memory for a Lifetime of Optimal Mental Health." She empowers you to understand how unscientific research methods drive fickle nutrition headlines and illogical dietary guidelines, weigh the risks and benefits of your favorite foods so you can make your own informed choices about what to eat, evaluate yourself for signs of insulin resistance—the silent metabolic disease that robs your brain of the energy it needs to thrive, and improve your mental health with a choice of moderate-carbohydrate and ketogenic diets that you can personalize to your food preferences and health goals.
