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

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

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

There is a significant relationship between childhood trauma and the increased risk of developing various mental health disorders and metabolic diseases later in life.

Only 7% of Americans are healthy across all five biomarkers of metabolic syndrome, highlighting a public health crisis that impacts neurodevelopment.

The focus of research should shift from merely treating conditions to understanding and improving metabolic health to prevent mental health disorders.

Malnutrition during pregnancy increases the risk of mental and metabolic disorders in children, including obesity, diabetes, and schizophrenia.

Obesity, diabetes, and autoimmune diseases are skyrocketing, indicating we're losing the war on chronic disease.

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