Felice Jacka OAM is Professor of Nutritional Psychiatry, Director of the Food & Mood Centre at Deakin University, and founder and president of the International Society for Nutritional Psychiatry Research. Professor Jacka has been responsible for the development of the highly innovative field of ‘Nutritional Psychiatry’, establishing diet as a risk factor and treatment target for common mental disorders. The results of the studies she has led have been highly influential, being cited in more than 80 policy documents globally (e.g. WHO, UNICEF) and influencing clinical guidelines in psychiatry in Australia and elsewhere. She is widely recognized as international leader in the field of Nutritional Psychiatry research. She is an ISI Highly Cited Researcher (2020 and 2021), putting her in the top 0.1% of publishing scientists worldwide for impact. In 2021 she was awarded a Medal of the Order of Australia (OAM) for her services to Nutritional Psychiatry.
Since being diagnosed with bipolar disorder, psychosis, and anxiety, Victoria Maxwell has become one of North America’s top speakers and educators on the lived experience of mental illness and recovery, dismantling stigma and returning to work after a psychiatric disorder. As a performer, her funny, powerful messages about mental wellness create lasting change in individuals and organizations. By sharing her story of mental illness and recovery she makes the uncomfortable comfortable, the confusing understandable. The Mental Health Commission of Canada named her keynote That’s Just Crazy Talk as one of the top anti-stigma interventions in the country.
The problem I’ve always faced is being super on point with taking my probiotics or my fish oil and B12 for months, maybe 4-6(my mania) then I’ll go into my low where I miss work I barely want to pee… for 9-14 weeks! I’m medicated so it’s gotten much shorter for both but eating has always been such a hassle. I appreciate this video and wish the US did more. I see a lot of UK Australia and Canada doing so much for BP research.
I’ve also been super on point while euthymic, and then ended up manic/psychotic and in hospital, where I wasn’t allowed access to my supplements and was eating hospital food instead (not wholly nutritious).
Im 70 now. diagnosed at 22 with bipolar. Been studing up with neuroscience for 2 years now. Quit drinking alcohol. When I heard about keto diet ridding of bipolar I was in. Had my first body-mind connection ,,, amazing. Never was overweight lost 34 lbs though. Had to gain weight as kept losing down to 104 and got worried. Now trying to keep the 5 lbs Ive gained back and trying to keep my mind healthy. My daily routein is ok now but my mind work is so strenuously nerve wracking. I have to wonder if this " more normal is worth it ? Sounds funny but after 2 years of this rollercoster ride Im exausted. Working on myself is rewarding ,butttt! I want to know I'm NOT alone in my plight ,as it would give me a purpose. NO doctors or psychological doctors have ever helped me. I have to take care of myself is the conclusion I've come to. Thanks to all the people who talk about this subject. Now to make me want to go on at 70 is a whole new world, very difficult. I eat a " very healthy diet and it has become just yet another part of my plight.
Hey, as a 25 year old with bipolar, I am very happy to hear your story. I am sorry if it might sound rude .
I was diagnosed less than a year ago and lost my training job because of the mania.
It gives me hope that I can make something out of my life. I am a doctor and I had got into the best training programme in my country. I got manic during the programme and was given my diagnosis. I had to leave it because they couldn't accommodate me.
Seeing people grow old with this disorder gives me hope that I will grow up with it too.
Thank you for sharing your story.
Also keto is good but if you get off keto it can trigger mania. So I would say best avoid it.
Google intuitive eating. My psychiatrist had studied BDNF and recommended a balanced diet and loads of exercise. He said exercise is medicine.
Keto diet has a promising future for BD, don't sleep on it! Check out the ongoing rcts and the case studies. Thanks regardless!
Strict keto is by far more promising than anything else diet wise.
Pretty sure Felice doesn't love keto though!
I’m bipolar. I did keto first a couple years ago. I felt great but still had some issues in addition to GI issues (due to the plants). I then tried carnivore diet. Which I’m currently still doing. It is the BEST life change decision I have ever made. I’m 39, single mom, work full time, and honestly can tell you I have NEVER felt this amazing before. I’m on no medication whatsoever. People who haven’t tried it like to scoff at it or judge or think I’m ridiculous. And that’s fine. But! Do your research and try it for yourself. That’s what I tell people is why not try it for 30 days? Nothing to lose. I can guarantee you after even just a few DAYS on carnivore you will be blown away how much better you feel
This video is very helpful for me and I saved this video so I can go over it again. I definitely will be writing things down. I am a new subscriber and I am 53 years old with bipolar disorder type 2. I am currently 248 lbs and I am 5 5 inches tall. In the last two months I am currently walking outdoors and now I am walking on a treadmill every second day.
From my own experience with a very recent diagnosis, also acceptance and embracing BP2… nutrition and exercise are key to lessening symptoms and IMO healing BP2 and most other mental disorders.
It’s all metabolic disorders!
Careful with grains and lots of plants - research more and test on yourself. More fat and protein helps improve hormone balance and insulin resistance.
Thankyou, 2009/2010 lived in Geelong & tried out for Smiles Trail, similar story to Victoria + traumatic younger life. Followed Felice, did FutureLearn Mood & Food online course, Edx online Dispelling Diet Myths (Lauret Prof Clare Collins Uni Newcastle), now edx on-line Mental Health and Nutrition ( ProfJulia Rucklidge), I love gut-brain-axis topic. Doing alot better, " Eat food, Mostly Plants, Not to Much". Loneliness and purpose is my Achilles Heel from being adopted and fostered till age 3. Always keep up this great research to help us all.🧠Angela Davies Melbourne Australia.
I am sorry 😞 to hear.
I love keto. I’ve been on Keto for quiet long time. It’s not expensive at all. I eat vegetables and berries and lots of nuts also. I’ve heard keto work for people with epilepsy and that’s why they believe it works for bipolar.
www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6620566/ people who respond to keto lofted lack an enzyme to metabolize carbs. Anything we can't metabolize triggers inflammation which can lead to epilepsy or issues like bipolar.
helps to lower dopamine too (high dopamine associated with anxiety, paranoia, and psychosis in bipolar, schizophrenia, OCD and more)
The Mood Center founder , Dr.Chris Aiken wrote a Bipolar book which promotes the Mediterranean diet.
So keto is better for me than a vegan diet? I was vegan for 2 years but still had anxiety and exercise addiction now I'm on keto and I feel so much better
Thank you for publishing this, you are doing really important work!
The moment you said Keto doesn’t work- I had to turn this off.
I bet she’s a vegetarian.

Keto and bipolar is research based. Don't understand why doc says is not supported
Check out Dr. Chris Palmer MD, he’s a big proponent for keto and running the brain off of ketones versus glucose. Brain Energy is the book. Maybe some brains don’t do well with glucose. I guess we should try before we critique, it’s not for everyone but if it can lead to a better life why not try.
Are patients checked for PKU when they are bipolar?
In our families experience they diagnose then give meds, nothing internal .. for MN. You have to fight for tests in Mn. Noticed problems with BP after my daughters concussion. I know the gut-brain axis can get messed up after concussion, the BBB is damaged which can create lots of problems.

Great video, very helpful.
And also, Dr. Morton is blindingly foxy. Just sayin 😳
