Nutrients and Mental Health: Unveiling the Hidden Connections

The brain is made from, and runs on, nutrients. Nutrients protect the brain from oxidative stress and toxicity. Nutrients (and environment) determine genetic expression, regulating stimulating and inhibitory brain activity and other brain processes.
Ever wondered how what you eat affects your mental health? In this eye-opening episode of 'Mind Matters', hosts Eva Edelman and Simone Jeanette dive deep into the crucial role nutrients play in brain function and mental well-being. They are joined by renowned experts Dr Carl Pfeiffer, Dr Abram Hoffer, and Dr William Walsh, who share groundbreaking insights into how nutrients can influence conditions like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, autism, and even violent behavior.
The conversation doesn't just stop at theory; it delves into practical advice on incorporating essential nutrients into your diet to support mental health. You'll also learn about the intricate relationship between genetics, epigenetics, and nutrient absorption. This episode sheds light on why stopping medication abruptly can be dangerous and emphasizes the benefits of a nutrient-rich diet, including the often-debated role of red meat as a source of niacin. Plus, ethical considerations around animal treatment are thoughtfully discussed.
If you're looking to understand the science behind nutritional psychiatry and want actionable tips to improve your mental health naturally, this episode is a must-listen.
