The integration of metabolic health with mental health is crucial for a comprehensive understanding of mental illness and its treatment.

Metabolic health, particularly mitochondrial health, can be leveraged to treat and potentially cure psychiatric disorders like schizophrenia, autism, depression, bipolar disorder, and ADHD.

The way we think and our mental well-being are more important than lifestyle changes for improving health outcomes.

Metabolic health influences neurodevelopment, and as metabolic health declines, we can expect an increase in neurodevelopmental disorders.

To improve health, we need to focus on a multimodal approach that addresses multiple factors affecting our well-being, rather than relying on single treatments for diseases.

The ketogenic diet can be life-changing for some individuals with mental health disorders, but it is not a guaranteed cure for everyone. Diet significantly impacts brain health, and we need to reconsider our approach to nutrition and lifestyle to improve mental health outcomes.

Diet and exercise are crucial for improving health, but for individuals with severe mental health conditions, additional treatments like supplements or neuromodulation may be necessary.

We need to develop evidence-based tools for prospective parents to assess their metabolic health and that of their children to improve health outcomes.

93% of Americans have some metabolic dysfunction, and psychiatric illnesses are rising in both children and adults.
