Episode description as stored

Traditional biological psychiatry often focuses on downstream neurotransmitters rather than fixing root causes. In this episode, host Zach Gurick sits down with Dr. Matthew Bernstein to explore how brain insulin resistance impacts mental health and cognitive function. They examine why the brain consumes twenty percent of your body's energy and what happens when brain cells can't process glucose effectively. Dr. Matthew Bernstein explains how therapeutic ketogenic diets provide an alternate fuel source that rescues starving neurons while triggering cellular repair. You'll also learn about essential blood tests you can request at your next checkup to catch metabolic issues early. Tune in to discover practical nutrition and lifestyle protocols that protect long-term brain health.
