It's also about having the willingness to go the extra mile. Going the extra mile is not just about feeling better about yourself.

But more than the positive self-image it brings, making a special effort to do and achieve something acts as a positive influence on other people.

Given that mental health treatment outcomes have not improved dramatically over time despite a wealth of research, novel psychotherapies and pharmaceutical compounds, it is important that new theories around mental disorders continue to be identified and explored.   Harvard psychiatrist & researcher, Dr. Chris Palmer, joins us for a discussion of some of the core themes in his new book Brain Energy, which paints the picture of a potential “unifying” underlying metabolic mechanism with respect to mental disorders that might allow better understanding and treatment of brain illness.  In this conversation we cover:the client journey that led Dr. Palmer to want to write this bookan overview of Dr. Palmer's conceptualization of mental disorders, including differenting between expected and adaptive responses to stressors vs. true brain disorders a review of some of the findings that have suggested a link between metabolic processes and the evolution & maintenance of mental disorders and how this model accommodates comorbiditythe importance of neuronal activation - both over- and under-activation - in Dr. Palmer's modelthe risk factors that contribute to developing a metabolic disorder within the brainimplications of the Brain Energy model with respect to why established pharmacotherapy (or even psychotherapy) might actually workmedical & self-help treatments that this model suggests might be helpful, including the role of supplements & medications which impact upon metabolismHost note: We will be offering a 6 week essentials of CBT workshop that I will be facilitating beginning March 24, 2023.  For more information and registration, please visit: https://www.ottawacbt.ca/news Please come join us!Dr. Christopher M.

Entrepreneur and soon-to-be author Calley Means' recent Twitter post exposed the racist agenda of Coca-Cola and racked up a whopping 12 million views,  13,000 retweets, and close to 60,000 likes in just one month.   And that's just one tiny piece of Calley's incredible journey to exposing the problems of our current healthcare and food system.   But instead of just complaining and highlighting the issues, Calley's actively working on a solution through his latest company, TrueMed, which aims to use food and exercise as medicine instead of relying on pharmaceuticals that actually make things worse.   When you tune into this episode, you'll learn more about his latest company, along with Calley's first-hand experience seeing big pharma and food companies funneling money to professors, universities, and research studies on nutrition to skew the data in their favor. You'll also hear about how companies like Coca-Cola continue to target low-income families through food stamp programs and how they lobby to avoid having a sugar tax placed on their products.   Calley also discusses how our current system has been making people with chronic diseases worse off instead of better, why weight loss drugs are not the answer, especially for obese kids, and what can be done to turn things around.   Calley also shares his personal experience and how he found himself in this space, what he believes the root causes of chronic diseases are based on science and research, and more about his company TrueMed.   Here's a look at what Calley and Dr. Anthony Gustin discuss in this episode: Calley's backstory and why he started caring about health and fixing the healthcare system How it's become normalized for people to be chronically sick and taking a handful of prescriptions each day, and what that stems from How the food system is designed to be efficient at making food cheap and addicting Calley's Twitter post that went viral and shed light on how food companies are funding research on nutrition and skewing the results in their favor The two biggest lobbying spenders and why this is a massive problem for our healthcare system How our chronic disease management process is actually causing diseases to go up and get worse instead of making things better What can be done to fix our healthcare system? Will our healthcare system eventually work itself out? What can be done to address rising mental health issues? How the scientific community has let Americans down and what can be done about it Calley shares his thoughts on treating obese kids with prescription drugs and shots The problem with weight loss drugs and why this is a huge issue The root causes of chronic diseases and how it's preventable Calley's latest business, TrueMed, and the problems it's actively working to solve   Mentioned in this episode: Calley Mean's website Calley Mean's Twitter and Instagram Calley's website for TrueMed Justin Mares' Twitter and weekly newsletter Levels Health Brain Energy: A Revolutionary Breakthrough in Understanding Mental Health and Improving Treatment for Anxiety, Depression, OCD, PTSD, and More by Dr. Christopher M.

Christopher M. Palmer's book Brain Energy: A Revolutionary Breakthrough in Understanding Mental Health (Benbella Books, 2022) will forever change the way we understand and treat mental health. If you or someone you love is affected by mental illness, it might change your life. We are in the midst of a global mental health crisis, and mental illnesses are on the rise. But what causes mental illness? And why are mental health problems so hard to treat? Drawing on decades of research, Harvard psychiatrist Dr. Chris Palmer outlines 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.  Brain Energy explains this new understanding of mental illness in detail, from symptoms and risk factors to what is happening in brain cells. Palmer also sheds light on the new treatment pathways this theory opens up—which apply to all mental disorders, including anxiety, depression, ADHD, alcoholism, eating disorders, bipolar disorder, autism, and even schizophrenia. Brain Energy pairs cutting-edge science with practical advice and strategies to help people reclaim their mental health. This groundbreaking book reveals: Why classifying mental disorders as “separate” conditions is misleading The clear connections between mental illness and disorders linked to metabolism, including diabetes, heart attacks, strokes, pain disorders, obesity, Alzheimer's disease, and epilepsy The link between metabolism and every factor known to play a role in mental health, including genetics, inflammation, hormones, neurotransmitters, sleep, stress, and trauma The evidence that current mental health treatments, including both medications and therapies, likely work by affecting metabolism New treatments available today that readers can use to promote long-term healing Palmer puts together the pieces of the mental illness puzzle to provide answers and offer hope. Brain Energy will transform the field of mental health, and the lives of countless people around the world. Sine Yaganoglu trained as a neuroscientist and bioengineer (PhD, ETH Zurich).

The ability to adapt enhances your capacity to cope with change, regardless of its severity. Being adaptable helps you come up with diverse solutions to problems. It's also about having the willingness to go the extra mile. Going the extra mile is not just about feeling better about yourself.

But more than the positive self-image it brings, making a special effort to do and achieve something acts as a positive influence on other people.

When it comes to our bodies, there are many seemingly unrelated things that can actually affect our mental health and our general feeling of well-being. From the foods we put into our body to the amount of exercise we get each day, there is a clear link between our physical health and our mental well-being.In this episode, Trevor discusses how depression can sneak up on us at any time and the false sense of security that we create in our minds when we’ve had a series of consecutive good days.Then we talk to Christopher M. Palmer, MD, (5:40), director of the Department of Postgraduate and Continuing Education at McLean, who has spent the last 20 years working on cases of treatment-resistant mental illness and the idea that diet can put psychiatric conditions into remission.Dr. Palmer goes pretty deep and shares lots of interesting information in this one, so check it out!Even more exciting content from Dr. Palmer:– Low-Carbohydrate Diet Superior to Antipsychotic Diet: mclean.link/7oq– Is It Safe to Face Your Trauma?: mclean.link/wnjRead the episode transcript: https://mclean.link/udm- - -The McLean Hospital podcast Mindful Things is intended to provide general information and to help listeners learn about mental health, educational opportunities, and research initiatives.
