I love this! I just wish the entire medical system would convert to functional medicine. The most frustrating thing about all of this is that people like myself can't afford the treatments.
The problem the U.S. needs to address is the fundamental inequity that naturally results from a lack of a national health system. There is one political party that wants to quash anything that resembles fairness in healthcare access, because those politicians, their friends, and their donors (read: insurance companies), because they might not get re-elected.
@@PhloxyLady-jd7feunfortunately that plan really harms the lower middle class. Everyone I know who had insurance prior to 2014 Obamscare had our premiums triple at the stroke of midnight on January 1, 2014. We still had insurance, but due to higher premiums we couldn't afford to pay the co pays and our portion that we were responsible for. What is the point of having insurance if you can't use it?
I work on developing good mental, physical, spiritual balance. I spend time with God daily, meditate, garden, sing and practice mindfulness through walking daily. I follow a Mediterranean diet, pay attention to what I watch and listen to. I have to pay attention to my thoughts the same way I pay attention to what I eat. Developing a balance is a work in progress. 😊
What a great conversation. Breaks my heart thinking about all the anxious, unhappy, damaged, underfunctioning children out there who could be massively helped with just a change in diet, less device time and more sleep.
I think it's easy and irrational to blame an inanimate object. I am my own gatekeeper so my boundaries extend to the technology I use and the messaging I consume.

Psychiatry is very frustrating to other professionals in the mental health field. We end up with patients taking a handful of meds that haven’t improved symptoms, rather they’ve created a whole host of other symptoms. Patients often don’t want to be on them but are under the assumption diagnoses like depression and anxiety should be medicated. Get a holistic and integrative licensed counselor. They’ll focus on mental health and educate on multidimensional health, helping get you connected to other professionals who can help you work on physical health and other dimensions as needed.
Thank you for this great conversation!!! While I'm definitely no expert in these matters, I've recently read that high blood glucose causes 1) Increased lactate in blood, as well as 2) Decreased choline and acetylcholine (hence decreased vasodilation, esp flow thru capillaries); and that excessive lactate and choline deficiency attenuate the anti-inflammatory protective effect of bFGF (in SY5Y cells). Doesn't this therefore mean high blood glucose contributes to neuroinflammation? ...and so doesn't this imply that metabolic disease like Type II Diabetes (and even the slow onset of "pre-diabetes"), can play (perhaps) a direct and significant role in brain health and hence psychological well-being? Of course many people have suggested that our eating habits greatly contribute to our emotional state, but could rigorously studying this show *scientifically* (if it hasn't been done already) that the significant decline in mental health is being caused (at least in part) by poor dietary choices? So, could anyone kindly provide any info re who's studying the direct role of long term blood glucose dynamics in mental health? More specifically, any conveniently recallable knowledge of any recent specific research with significant results, e.g. using constant glucose monitoring, and showing benefits to cell or brain function by maintaining a healthy, but more specifically and importantly, consistent, flat, moderately low blood sugar levels in our daily lives? Thanks and best regards.
I am a firm believer that the lack of civility and the overall mental illness state of the US population is a result of our standard American diet. With the better diet for the most part in some European countries, has their overall mental health been correlated to the lack of brain inflammation due to diet? Thanks, Dr Hyman for presenting this viewpoint.
I do believe all mental and psychological problems and physical problems are due to the environment and unhealthy lifestyle and not applying what is good ?
Yeah well that’s because the US doesn’t want you healthy and won’t cover it with insurance, that would mean they’re covering a person getting treated…which means losing a customer for life. Your health is your wealth and yes you have to invest in order to get the answers you did that isn’t a temporary bandaid.
Let's get real here.. Get Grounded first!. Then all this other stuff will work better ...by an order of magnitude. Grounding suppresses INFLAMMATION IMMEDIATELY!
Mark has a really bad habit of interrupting the guest when they are explaining something. This makes it difficult for the audience to listen. It would be better if Mark could be more patient by waiting for the guest to finish their thought before Mark talks. This makes Mark a lousy podcast host because of his knee-jerk thoughts that he seems unable to hold until the guest finishes talking. With podcasts, especially, only one person should talk at a time. Mark, unfortunately, seems unable to understand this.
It can be. A lot of things can cause mental illness. Even a slight hormonal imbalance can cause really bad mental illness. That's what postpartum psychosis is. Even a bad diet can cause depression. I wouldnt doubt it. I mean all of these things cause inflammation, and that would also be in the brain.
I got damaged by psychiatry quite badly as a captured person, which resulted in Drug Induced Parkinson's. Overall a cast of characters for psychiatric abuse and health care fraud.
Too much time is wasted on lateral talking and not focused as points to causes and what to do? If the host knows everything why invite a guest ? Is it loneliness? Is it to inspire the inflated self ? Thanks for the time and please please change the style for such great topics and great people presenting the topic and for great listeners hungry and thirsty for exact proper health advice.
Considering Dr Hyman's interests, I'd like to see him endorse Robert F Kennedy Jr, who is running for President as an independent. He plans to make changes to our food at every level, farming and soil improvement, availability of good foods where there are currently food desserts, etc. Listen to his videos here on YT, to know what his views are on all our issues, including mental health. If we want to see things change, we have to allow and support change.
I personally believe that the rise in mental illness is due to a lack of sweet things in people’s lives, like sugar in chocolate, soft drinks, ice cream, etc. But I could be wrong, it’s just my personal preference.
Sugar causes cancer, diabetes, heart attacks, strokes..... Oxygen starves cancer and will greaty help with the rest. Kid's don't play outside and adults don't go outside much either!
I hope you don’t think I was being serious but I will admit that I do use sugar to sweeten foods that I like to make, like banana bread, baklava, etc. I also worked for Coca-Cola and I used to drink two 591 ml bottles of Coke a day.
@@AudreyGriffithPhD Sorry, I am not suffering from over-education and was very simply making a statement (I do not listen to a lot of words, 20 minutes of explanation is quite enough. You must love to hear yourself talk)!
@@AudreyGriffithPhDExactly what I was thinking. This might be someone who could gain good benefit from this information. At a minimum, food for thought.

Would mental illness be the symptom of brain inflammation ? Having had mental illness myself

I wouldnt doubt it. I mean all of these things cause inflammation, and that would also be in the brain.

I personally believe that the rise in mental illness is due to a lack of sweet things in people’s lives, like sugar in chocolate, soft drinks, ice cream, etc. But I could be wrong, it’s just my personal preference.
People are consuming more sugar than ever , it’s contributing to the problem !
Sugar causes cancer, diabetes, heart attacks, strokes..... Oxygen starves cancer and will greaty help with the rest. Kid's don't play outside and adults don't go outside much either!
I think they over do
I hope you don’t think I was being serious but I will admit that I do use sugar to sweeten foods that I like to make, like banana bread, baklava, etc. I also worked for Coca-Cola and I used to drink two 591 ml bottles of Coke a day.
