They dive into some pretty intriguing topics, like the potential issues with vegan diets, the development of blood tests for PTSD, the risks of marijuana use during pregnancy, and how antidepressants might affect your gut health. Dr. Amen sheds light on why choline is crucial for brain health and fetal development, emphasizing how meat can be a good source of B vitamins.
The episode also highlights a concerning trend: an increase in babies born exposed to marijuana, which can lead to learning and memory problems later in life.
