1h 2m
In this Wellness Wednesday, Harvard psychiatrist, neuroscientist and author Dr. Christopher M. Palmer will share insights about how one’s metabolic health deeply impacts mental health.
Drawing on decades of research, Dr. Palmer will outline a revolutionary new understanding that, for the first time, unites our existing knowledge about mental illness within a single framework: Mental disorders are metabolic disorders of the brain.
This 60-minute YPO Live promises to pair cutting-edge science with practical advice and strategies to help people reclaim their mental health.
You’ll exit with an understanding of:
Why classifying mental disorders as separate conditions is misleading.
The connection between metabolic health and mental well-being.
Why common mental health treatments, including both medications and therapies, do not work well for chronic PTSD, depression, anxiety and personality disorders.
The significance of mitochondria in mental health and the effects of the ketogenic diet on the body and brain.
The new treatments available today that can promote long-term healing.
