HUWHAT TO EAT FOR MENTAL HEALTH (& WHAT TO AVOID) •
-
The idea that what we eat can impact our mood and mental health comes at no surprise. However, it’s only recently that scientific and clinical studies have begun to establish the powerful relationship between eating highly processed foods and mental health disorders. Alterations in mitochondria, likely represent the bridge between these two factors.
-
There is an abundance of data showing the eating mostly unprocessed or minimally processed foods has a positive effect on mental health.
-
Of course, results such as these are correlative. There are a lot of lifestyle issues that likely accompany the consumption of highly processed foods or the avoidance of them for that matter .

Dr. Chris Palmer is a psychiatrist working at Harvard. He is pioneering the new field of metabolic psychiatry, which is the use of specific nutritional programs to treat and in some cases cure, mental health disorders.
