Dr Austin Perlmutter, neurobiology, mood and decision-making expert, joins our ambassador Dr Adrian Lopresti as they explore the biological basis of “stuckness” in the mind and how the brain is influenced by inflammatory/immune triggers which results is certain behaviours and health outcomes. Together they discuss the relationship between sickness behaviour, neuroinflammation and their effect on the brain leading to our inherent tendency to return to “default”. Nature vs nurture is discussed where exposures from foetal development, childhood trauma and genetic influences can impact our mental and cognitive flexibility much later in life. Austin explains “disconnection syndrome” a modern conundrum where our brains tend to latch onto impulsive behaviours leading to cognitive decline. It's not all doom and gloom as Austin and Adrian bring practical solutions to the table in the form of simple lifestyle adjustments that promotes behavioural change and reduce neuroinflammation.

The Love, Happiness and Success Podcast With Dr. Lisa Marie Bobby
What if your anxiety, brain fog, or mood swings aren't in your mind... but in your mitochondria? I know—that sounds wild. But in this jaw-dropping episode of Love, Happiness & Success, I'm talking with Dr. Bret Scher about something that completely changed the way I think about mental health: Metabolic Psychiatry. We dive into the cutting-edge (but surprisingly old!) science behind mind and energy psychiatry that connects mental health challenges like depression, anxiety, ADHD, and even serious psychiatric conditions with how your body uses energy. Spoiler alert: your brain runs on fuel, and what you eat matters a lot more than we were taught in grad school. Together, Dr. Scher and I unpack how ketogenic therapy is helping people reclaim their mental clarity, lift mood disorders, and, in some cases, experience complete transformation. If you've been “doing the work” and still not feeling like yourself, this conversation might be the missing piece you've been searching for. Timestamps: 00:00 The Link Between Metabolism and Mental Health 01:17 Dr. Brett Scher and Metabolic Psychiatry 02:39 The History and Science Behind Ketogenic Therapy 10:36 Exploring the Ketogenic Diet and Its Benefits 17:59 Implementing a Ketogenic Diet 30:32 Patient Transformations and Success Stories 32:23 Impact of Ketogenic Diet on Mental Health 33:35 Inflammation and Brain Function 34:46 Ketogenic Therapy vs. Traditional Approaches 39:11 GLP-1 Drugs and Metabolic Health 42:42 Implementing Dietary Changes in Families 46:01 Ketogenic Diet for Autism Spectrum Disorders 49:27 Comparing Ketogenic and Plant-Based Diets 52:23 Resources and Final Thoughts I learned SO much from chatting with Dr. Scher.

How Liver Congestion Impacts Brain Function In this episode, we dive into the connection between liver congestion and brain health, focusing on how toxin buildup and blood-brain barrier dysfunction can contribute to brain fog, cognitive decline, and neuroinflammation. A congested liver allows toxins to leak into the bloodstream, which can reach the brain, impairing function. We also explore the gut-liver-brain axis, the role of vagal tone in detoxification, and how chronic stress exacerbates liver dysfunction, leading to cognitive issues. We discuss holistic strategies to support liver and brain health, such as: Supporting bile flow and liver detox with nutrient-dense foods (cruciferous vegetables, bitter greens, and lemon water). Strengthening vagal tone through breathwork, deep breathing, and cold exposure. Supporting gut health and reducing toxin load with probiotics and digestive aids. D.R.E.S.S. Protocol for Liver Health FDN Practitioners use the D.R.E.S.S. for Health Success® framework to restore liver function naturally: Diet: Focus on nutrient-dense, anti-inflammatory foods, like cruciferous vegetables and bitter greens, while reducing liver stressors like processed foods and alcohol. Rest: Ensure 7-9 hours of quality sleep to optimize liver detoxification. Exercise & Movement: Encourage daily movement (walking, strength training) to support lymphatic drainage and avoid overtraining. Stress Reduction: Use techniques like breathwork and meditation to lower cortisol and reduce stress on the liver. Supplements: Targeted liver detox support with Milk Thistle, NAC, Glutathione, B vitamins, and herbs like dandelion and burdock root. Functional lab testing, including GI-MAP, DUTCH, and Organic Acids Test, helps uncover root causes of liver congestion and cognitive dysfunction. These insights allow for personalized health protocols to optimize liver-brain-gut function and improve overall health. Key Takeaways – FDN Practitioner Approach to Liver Health: Investigate root causes using functional labs (GI MAP, DUTCH, OAT, CMP, Lipid Panel). Correlate lab markers with symptoms (fatigue, skin issues, hormone imbalances, digestion). Apply D.R.E.S.S. principles to restore detoxification pathways. Monitor progress and adjust protocols for personalized liver support. Tune in to learn how functional medicine and holistic strategies can improve brain clarity, mood, and overall health.

In this episode, I discuss how different forms of exercise impact brain health and performance in both the short and long term. I explain how many of the positive effects of exercise on brain function occur through the action of specific neurochemicals that increase alertness. I also cover how to best time exercise and which specific types of exercise to include in your weekly routine to maximize benefits for your brain. Additionally, I explain how certain types of exercise trigger the release of a hormone from your bones called osteocalcin, as well as brain-derived neurotrophic factor. Together, these substances increase neuroplasticity and enhance learning. The positive effects of exercise on brain oxygenation, blood supply, and fuel utilization are also discussed. Listeners will learn how to design a weekly exercise program that optimizes physical fitness, brain health, longevity, and performance, along with the mechanistic logic behind those recommendations.
