Do you ever feel like you´re losing enthusiasm for life and struggling to enjoy the things that would usually make you happy? Initial signs of depression and anxiety can manifest through minor issues like losing your nerves about your in-laws or getting angry for no reason at all. But what if there is a way to fight depression with the food you eat? What might surprise you: Your current diet might be the source of your anxiety and depression. Your mood is directly impacted by what you eat. With the proper evidence-based nutrition, it is possible to take control of anxiety, boost your mood and live a life full of joy. In this episode of Health Theory, Tom Bilyeu is joined by Nutritional Psychiatrist, Men’s Health advisor, and author Drew Ramsey to discuss such matters and more as they explore the current state of depression. They also explain why nutrition is the easiest way of influencing depression positively and uncover a psychological lever to reduce your anxiety. Furthermore they disclose the way your anxiety is influenced by the foods you eat, which foods you should avoid and finally why you shouldn´t lose hope if you currently struggle with mental illness.

I had debilitating mental illness most of my life including chronic depression and anxiety, suicidality, bipolar II, ADHD, OCD, binge eating, and borderline personality disorder. At 41, I couldn't go on and started planning my permanent departure including urn shopping, service details, final wishes etc .. But something told me one of the treatments I haven't tried was a complete diet overhaul so I made a deal - if I clean up my diet and it doesn't help me, I'm outta here. I chose the Ketogenic way of eating. It's been over 4 years now, I've never had any medication nor any bipolar episodes since. Nutrigenomics and metabolic interventions, not meds or doctors, saved my life. If I listened to doctors, I wouldn't be here. I was recently on BipolarCast in CZcams. You can watch me tell my story in episode 11.
Congrats. I wanted to check out with panic attacks 30 years ago. Wish I knew this info back then. Keep up the good diet. Staying busy helps too. I'm fine now btw.
Mia, I just watch full episode that you mention above. First of all I want to tell you that you are incredibly beautiful woman, big eyes, lips, curly hair…just wow! That was my first impression when i started watching the video, then I cry when you talk about your childhood and your brother, I have strong emotion when I imagine any kids having any kind of pain, or any problem that instantly tears my eyes. Then you mention chronic pain in the body on keto, thank you for that, until now I believe got some virus or something, thank you for mention that. I’m in that stage at the moment, ever bone in my body hurts me, last night I had very strong pain in back of my head and in my neck, I forced myself to sleep as long as possible since I sleep very little on ketogenic diet, after 12h of sleep I wake up tired my head and neck pain stoped but my body hurts still, I have this feeling when I got very high temperature like 39,5 then I feel like this, every bone is in pain, even skin hurt me when I touch it, but now I don’t have any temperature but still in pain. I want to thank you for mention that and help me understand what’s going one. Can you tell me how long you were in this phase? I’m fasting for 20h at this point and feed myself in period of 3pm to 7pm. Thanks God you find your peace, world is much better place with you I’m sure, look how many ppl you influenced and how much of us relate with your story! Wish you all the best from the bottom of my heart and congrats to everything you achieved, you well deserved that!
Greetings from Serbia!
Manojlo
Wow! Thank you for sharing you’re very brave. I’m so glad that you changed your diet and you’re enjoying life 😊
I wish CZcams didn’t notify me for a reply that wasn’t directly for me, notifying me as a reply because I made a comment on the same thread as someone else! If it wasn’t a direct response to my comment I don’t care smh
This is literally me! Even down to the age and making plans to take my life. Decided on the diet over hall too! Things already improving. Ketogenic like you but last night I had dairy and felt AWFUL. Stomach hurt, anxiety through the roof again and couldn’t get to sleep. Do you eat dairy or have you had the same experience with it? Also what carbs do you eat if any? Thank you x
*Changed my life. I will never eat the same ever again. "Unless you physically trip and your face lands in a box **weightlose.fitness** of donuts, there is no such thing as a 'slip'." Get that mind set and you'll win again and again.*
Hey do u mind too go fuck yourself with your pukey comment thanks dog killer
With every discovery of how food influences the quality of my life, my shopping is getting less difficult 😊
75% of food sold on supermarket is not even real 😳
Totally, and wrapped in plastics that are definitely going to outlive all of us.
@@Tippitiwitch excuse my ignorance, what's your point?
Thst plastics, @@tagaway6173 are such a toxic material it will keep polluting our air and waterways for many years after we're dead and most 'non-food' products sold at supermarkets are wrapped and over wrapped in them; mostly unnecessarily . Some of those plastics leach into our food and goes into our systems with dire consequences.
czcams.com/video/ZUW-OGUeXFU/video.html
Yes, it ultimately simplifies & streamlines food shopping, I feel.
Tom, I don't know if you'll ever read this but this channel SAVED my life. You've had such a tremendous impact in my life and I can't even put into words. I'm in the process of healing mentally but what really got me initiated is you. You forever have my respect, man.
I am originally from Sudan and I'm with you Tom is us all, He is our map to success
Same
most meaningful "like" from a creator I've ever seen.
and good luck to you sir.
Jordan Peterson did the same for me but this guy is right up there as well.
Absolutely!! I agree.
The keto diet cured my anxiety and depression. I went from self harm and misery to being outgoing and positive. Literally took one week.
@@MetubeCZcams when people live to be close to 100 years of age, they almost always say they have a sweet tooth. Betty White who is nearing 100, apparently eats hot dogs and french fries often (daily) and her favorite treat is red vines. There are emotional causes for inflammation.
Wow, that’s incredible! What was your diet like before and what changes did you implement?
Same with me exact same effect
I cannot wait till people realize how awful keto is for your body...one day 👍
@@alyssabarnett7297 Its awesome for weight loss .
I love how Tom intently listens to his guests and never talks over them. We need more Tom Bilyeus in this world.
czcams.com/video/ZUW-OGUeXFU/video.html
But, I want to hear more of the author's experience.
True
Right?! Jeeze. Always bad timing.
Yes. He’s my favourite interviewer of all time. Much respect.
GREAT interview! I am a cancer patient in remission. Was diagnosed a year ago. After going through chemo and radiation I suffered terrible depression. Consequently, doc put me on depression medication. It sucked! I started researching food as healing. I’ve been off medication for 5 months, completely cut out ALL sugar, eat 10 cups of vegetables a day, fish 3 times a week (do my best), no coffee after 1 pm, probiotics, etc. I’ve really noticed a difference. I love how this interview doesn’t prescribe a “one size fits all” approach. Love these two! Thank you for this fabulous information 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Same here . . . just went through 15 months of cancer treatment. Handled the treatment well but went into a deep depression due to looking for employment after cancer treatment. I have to clean up my eating habits and exercise more. Your picture is beautiful btw.
Did you cut out fruit ?
Thank you for sharing your story. I have a loved one who was just diagnosed with breast cancer. I will send her this video and your comment.
Tom, I love that you state your mind but also let your guests speak theirs without much interruption. You're really listening + that helps us to do that, too. Keep up the good work. 👍
Thank you, SOOOOOOOOOOO much!!!! This program is proof of everything I 've been learning and practicing for 30 years..... I love this transition of health and connecting BACK to the Earth, we are making.
I have 5 children.. and with one daughter while I was pregnant I are so much fish every week.. and I've always said that she is more intelligent than the others because of it...and now you have proved me right!! Thanks!!
I love that one has gnomes at his back & the other has superheroes.
What do YOU have?
I just have spider's web 😓
OMG, I was thinking about that since the beginning of this badass interview.
BAM, BAM!
Taga Way : love that question! And your background is 😂🤣
Hahaha you made my day
😂😆😂😆😂 I love that!💖💕
Thanks Tom for waking me up out of my decade-long debilitating depression. I have switched to a paleo/keto hybrid per the advice of your health theory guests, and it genuinely transformed my entire physiology.

Thank you a lot for this video! I think you should pin this comment to the top.
Thank you another great interview and conversation. I wonder Tom with the the thing you guys don;t agree on or your not caring about food/where it comes from. If you enjoy things like the big seafood market or when in big city like go to busy popular restaurant. Or like where can be amid all the creativity and action of a city? Thanks again - is so great how you share quotes and breakdown parts of videos.
Tom, this should be pinned.
Thank you sir 🥲
If someone asked u 10 foods to eat each day what wud ur 10 be day to day??
Thank you for this as a sufferer of ptsd and all of the things that fall under that diagnosis. I have been watching your podcasts. I honestly just had the thought last night that i wish there was someone who could help my diet improvement to help with my mental health as well as attacking all areas of my life in the hopes of healing my body, mind, spirit. I wake up this morning and i find this. This man is no doubt a missing piece to the puzzle. Im thankful you both exist. I cant wait to read the book. And follow this field as it gains traction and popularity.
Diet and certain supplements plus trauma informed / somatic experiencing, nervous system focused healing is helping me. "Mental" health is definitely not all mental. People like Peter Levine bessel van der kolk and irene lyon helped.
I really enjoyed listening to this doctor. He speaks so sincerely, I just want to keep listening. You can definitely tell he approaches everyone with kindness just from he was interacting with Tom in this interview.
Everything he says about omegas and pregnancy has come true for me
Agreed
Magnesium deficiency can also cause anxiety
I actually went through magnesium deficiency and my anxiety was very high
Also affects IBS-D along with zinc
Magnesium L-threonate is the only form that crosses the blood brain barrier
@@Type797 I think Magnesium Glycinate or Orotate works well with people with anxiety
Not sure if it’s available outside Canada, but Natural Calm is a great magnesium supplement.
I love this doctor! He’s one who could really get through to me with a compassionate bed side manner. I’m going to be researching his information. Thank you!
Tom you are a gift to this world! I love every detail about your channel. Thank you!
How powerful this was. Tom you nailed it when you said you felt your anxiety in your stomach. This session of Impact Theory was the EURIKA moment that has allowed me to corelate how intricate and always evolving our physical being really is. This session among many others have helped me more on my "self acceptance" journey then all my countless appointments with "professionals ". No words left but LOVE LOVE LOVE. TY

Eat fruits and veggies. Drink water. Go outside and get fresh air, sunshine and walk walk walk. Repeat each day for a healthy life. Simple, but excuses get in the way of excuses.
Also depression
@@kissakissa4779 I challenge anyone that is feeling depressed to pick a day when you feel that way and go outside with a back pack full of water and whatever you need for a few hours and walk and walk and walk. Go to a nature spot where all you can see is trees and you can't see a person. Do some deep breathing.
When you walk back home after 3 hours, notice how you feel as you get closer to home. HOME, inside your house is where the depression lives. You are going back to the depression.
Repeat this the next day and notice how you feel when you leave the house (depression) and then when you are in nature and have walked a long time. Now again, notice how you feel on the way back home and as you enter the house when you know you have so many tasks, or a dirty house waiting, or a husband you don't like. 4 kids? Barking dogs?
Depression is your SOUL talking to you. LISTEN. What is your depression telling you? You know what you don't like about your life, but you keep it secret.
Beef. Beef is the answer because it has Vit B12 and B6 and a lack of that is what makes you depressed.
Seafood too. Any other meats.
Sherri Lynn - your depressed house is telling you that it's dirty, neglected, and unkempt - and if you'd spend the time cleaning & nurturing it, that you did walking and walking out in Nature, it would not feel so depressed! 😂
Anxiety was my super power for years until I had a major health episode 13 years ago that took a year of recovery. Now I can't deal with anxiety at all. I finally found out about the link between gut health and anxiety and it saved my life.
So grateful for this video and the info and yes kindness is the path.
What did you do to fix your gut?
I have never heard of Dr. Ramsey. He is amazing such a great soul!
Drew is such a kind, thoughtful soul
czcams.com/video/c2pUdPsQqmE/video.html
This was wonderful - I was surprised to see it was ending at 40 min, it seemed like you both had so much more to say.
This was an awesome interview, thank you for bringing him on! I’m going to get his book!
Dr Ramsey, you and this info is a breath of fresh air. Down to Earth. Logical. Basic. Makes sense. Thank you !
This guy is good! Wow. Thanks for talking with him. Loving the takeaways. "You are your own eater."
Great timing! Getting ready to publish a podcast episode about supporting our kids mental health through the pandemic. We’ve been working on nutrition big time at home-this is so affirming!! Thanks Tom!!
I’ll check it out!
Nutrition is so important for depression - thanks for helping to share this message
This is my absolute favorite video EVER!!!!!!!!!!! This is such good information and I highly appreciate for myself and fellow humans! thank you so much for sharing this and what you do!!!
It’s amazing so many people are on drugs for mental health but yet the world has become more dangerous more stressful more difficult.
I wanted to offer my perspective on the "city bathing 2%" topic: I have taught cooking classes at an urban after school program for teens. Most of them are 3rd generation or more urban kids whose families have been poor for generations. Some are children of immigrants. The differences in the understanding of food and their valuing of it as an enriching part of their lives (as opposed to convenient or satiating fuel) between the kids who have been urban for generations vs immigrants who either grew or marketed daily or lived more seasonally is remarkable. Taking them all to a bodega type market (not even a farmer's market) and connecting them with the tactile and individual components of the meals we would later cook together seemed to trigger an ownership and investment into what they were cooking and eating. so while I don't think everyone has to love rural life and want to "meet the farmer", there is something powerful about lifting the veil between the end product to be eaten, and its source, even if it's saying "the guacamole you eat on that burrito you grabbed after school is made of these elements and this is how and why you choose each to make it really good guac. You can make it amazing yourself and you are worth making amazing food for!" And while you may have the discipline and intellectual approach to food that enables you to be an optimal eater without that visceral connection to its source or its elements, I find that to be unusual many people really need that link in order to be willing to do the work of good, healthy eating.
Thank you for teaching cooking to these children
It is a way for you to express love and care to them and for them to learn to love and care for themselves. Thank you . 🙏
Amazing perspective
Thanks Tom & Dr Drew, as someone with schizophrenia with a new youtube channel - I realised about five years ago the strong relationship between nutrition and exercise and mental health. I've been fighting with local psychiatrists ever since as they refuse to look into anything just pills. Once you realise how mental illness works within you you become so aggravated and at the same time motivated.
Keep running experiments on yourself try cutting out all grains for two or three months and see how you feel I have extreme anxiety and I feel the best when I'm eating massive amounts of fruit and then just a small amount of meat and then a little bit of salad and that's really makes up my entire diet + Xtreme exercise deep breathing and meditation try to get rid of all the stressful people in your life and reduce stress as much as possible and get everything organized your room and your life and that accounts for up if you did all those things that would account for 75% of any sort of mental illness I'm just be careful if you're on any benzodiazepines you have to taper off those things so so slowly
@@rawfoodphilosophy7061 you're on the right track just what works well for you would ruin me. My video will be published in 10 hours time on my youtube channel Aarron Brunner
Yeah, food and stress really affects mental health. I get tested on gluten: celiac and allergy, I was clean, no allergy, no celiac desease, but my thoughts sound in my head when I eat gluten, I even can say where there is gluten just by listening to my thoughts.
But the worst thing is what I am allergic to: sunflower oil, mayonnaise from sunflower oil, margarine from sunflower oil, celery, psilium. Then I lose it. Maybe on several minutes but it happens.
@@kotenoklelu3471 have you experimented with a carnivore diet with healthy animal fats? My diet is about 70% fat so I don't go near any sunflower / canola / margarine....oils
@@annnnn9074 no, I probably can't afford carnivore diet.
Awesome interview! Thank you so much for sharing this information. It's so helpful to so many of us.
Love that people can and do take control of their health.
nobody is by default an anxious person, anxiety comes from a damaged digestive system (worsen by any kind of external stress). In my case, I suffered anxiety at 33 years old for the first time in my life. Meds didn't do anything at all. Finally, after 1 year of trying to figure out the root cause, it came from NAFD due to my SAD diet. With a very low carb diet I am healing all!
Hello! What does NAFD mean?
@@22PAiiGE22 sorry, i meant NAFL
i don't know why you are saying that if you don't have evidence to back it up
@@baddie4life136 my lover is inflamed and also my digestion is bad, pretty clear.
@@baddie4life136 anecdotal evidence is the highest form of evidence for 1 specific person.
OMG thank you so much Tom and Drew, so great to have my intuition confirmed. I have a history of depression and anxiety in my adult life. I don't have it now! Which is weird because I was diagnosed with M.S. 3 years ago. You'd think I'd be more depressed. Lol😆
I changed my food plan, cleaned it up. Got into nature. Moved to the country and by the sea in summer, meditate and make choices based on my overall health and wellbeing. I'm reversing my MS symptoms radically which was not my initial prognosis. I got myself out of a wheelchair and you wouldn't know I had it if you met me now. I have been wondering why my mental health is improved and suspected as much. Thank you. You made my day. We all have a choice. Your show Tom makes it so much easier to make good choices. Much gratitude. 🙏💖🌺🌈
Congratulations on experiencing improvement and better quality of life. What ends up on your plate these days, if you don't mind sharing? Also, have you used conventional treatment for your MS?
please tell us more, i need to help my friend .
give us details .

Im suspecting I may be getting MS symptoms- were trying to narrow down whats going on still.... Luckily nothing too debilitating will come of whatever I have but I was really worrying for a while until I realized no matter WHAT it is I have, I can improve my symptoms and overall health with some nutrition and lifestyle efforts and this comment here has been so inspirational to me no matter what comes of my situation! Im so so glad you were able to treat and it seems reverse many of your symptoms and I hope you're living life to its fullest! Lots of love to you, my hero ❤ ❤ (@pollard designs)
you can reverse ms
This is genuinely one of, if not the very best, self help channel I’ve ever come across. So much information out there is confusing and I end up forgetting. Even after viewing 2 of your videos, I gave you a sub and you’ll have another consistent viewer! Thanks
The first comment I seen I could relate in the beginning there was a lot of analogies but towards the end he actually gave some information
Such a great topic. Fascinating and motivating!
I want a therapy session with him. He’s so inspiring- well, both are! Thanks for this wonderful conversation ✨ so precious
Magnesium helped my anxiet!!
Inositol (Vitamin B8) has been shown to dramatically help manage OCD, panic disorders, and skin picking/hair pulling!
I had no idea till my late 20’s that picking the skin around my nails was a sign of my anxiety. It was so bad my cuticles would bleed and be scabby. Now I’m a lot better and don’t pick at my cuticles anymore thankfully.
As far as I know, inositol is B7. B8 is biotin. So which one helped you? By the way, happy for your improvement!
@@pastaestel2465 good question. For me I just start complex B
@@plantmama7442 omg i do this to my cuticles too i know its from anxiety, but for the longest i thought i just had extra dry cuticles and i try to take care of them until im not even aware that i rip one off and its bleeding. how did you stop?
I take that because I'm pregnant but didnt know that. Choline inositol in one pill. NAC as well but amazon and some retailers just pulled it from the market. If you can get your lab work done its better to know what you need. And retest because I've been low in vitamin d but then I went too high taking 500iu every other day or two. Also if you have mthfr mutation you definitely need the more bio available forms of the b vitamins. The methylated complex didn't help me because some of the forms aren't right, I wasnt super low but on the low end of a lot despite supplementing for over a year.
From a migraine scientist angela a stanton facebook group I've learned for migraineurs like me we should take b2 riboflavin 5 phosphate form only, thiamine in allithiamine, lipothiamine or benfotiamine. Magnesium complex or glycinate. Can take a bit of vitamin c ascorbic acid if it helps you. But besides that you should test your blood which can be difficult to get doctors to test b vitamins and homocysteine.
I found my mehtylfolate, thiamine, b2, b12, b9 are all on the lower end despite supplementing a while. Same with magnesium. Now taking a sublingual/lozenge b12 methylcobalamine adenosine supplement too and added the correct form of b2. They didnt check my b6 or homocysteine or vitamin a but st least I got part of the puzzle. Oh and my ferritin was low yet my hemoglobin was high so the lower b12 and probably vitamin c isn't getting the iron into storage reserves. She explained it to me thst some people have trouble absorbing things no matter how nutrient dense you eat (I make myself eat liver and egg yolks and oysters and clams and eggs) some of us need to supplement for our best health no matter the diet. Could be due to our ancestors eating the wrong foods
Thank you!! Really enjoyed this podcast! I want to check out the book! Blessings!!
Excited to see this one! Trying to optimise your mind without the right food, just mental training, is like trying to lose weight by just working out. You'll never reach your full potential!
hi Nick, I see you practise what you preach, your channel looks interesting
Fully agree with you!
I loved this one!! He was great, raw, real, and love the horse!! Thanks Tom

Okay
This was so informative! Thank you! 💕
Eat. Just eat more. High protein clean foods. Thats the only thing that "cured" my anxiety. I think peterson once said it, if you feel anxious eat smth substantial and see how you feel after.
omg this guy is ADORABLE. Love that disposition and his easy going awareness. Winning smile.
Why comment on his appearance?
@@Emily-ni2zg Why not?
@@guitarsz fair enough 🤷🏻♀️
@@Emily-ni2zg :) 🌸.
@@Emily-ni2zg omg one of those comment police. Seriously its quite harmless. If you were sitting with your friend and watching a movie and she said, or commented, oh hes cute, it would be ok. So....
Haven’t scrolled the comments section yet so i hope I’m the first to say that this guy is giving me major Jeff Goldblum vibes.
Yes! What's up with that?! He doesn't look much like him, but his mannerisms & the way he speaks...like he's always taking part in several conversations at once & we're only privy to one of them...or something like that.
Young Jeff
THAT'S why I was finding him hot!
I didn't realize it until reading your comment, but yes he does.
It's the mannerisms, but also the alignment of his front teeth & how they make his mouth move.
Yes! I thought the same!
Lots of people have that vibe especially in the media 😂
We agree Tom. Being in Nature heals. Also walking on uneven surfaces.
This video is so informative and illustrates perfectly the food/mind/anxiety connection! Thank you so much!
czcams.com/video/c2pUdPsQqmE/video.html
i love this discussion, thank you! As a practitioner of functional medicine I am always fascinated by the debate between city vs country life and nature. it seems to me that city life triggers adrenaline, it’s fun and exciting but is all about external connections, extrinsic triggers and being outward-looking. Being in woodlands or on a coastal walk,, by contrast, gives you time and space to ‘hear’ yourself and look within, which can be massively challenging! Distractions are so much easier in the short term! How many times do people in offices or the city say “I can’t hear myself think!” Wherever our safe, quiet space is, it’s important to have that balance as well. There is a place for both depending upon where we are in our life, in my view. I would love to hear what others think!
There's lots of challenges living out in the bush, obviously they are different from the city challenges. It seems the off grid lifestyle is romanticized a lot on social media, I've been off grid on my bush block here in Australia, just me and my dog, for about 8 months now and there were 4-5 months setting up before that. It's been a brutal slog and it still is very challenging transforming a vacant block to a livable space. I doubt the average person could hack it tbh- I'm yet to have running/hot water.. so no shower here. The kitchen is outside and not protected from wind and rain, toilet is purely composting, so I have to empty all of that in to a pallet bay composting system for it to break down. It's all a bit overwhelming sometimes, especially when you are trying to heal the gut, heal from anxiety, depression etc.
Changed my life czcams.com/users/postUgkxIUm04tAgSzlAhCWEr7VlRptRAMVsjeAC I will never eat the same ever again. "Unless you physically trip and your face lands in a box of donuts, there is no such thing as a 'slip'." Get that mind set and you'll win again and again.
The best is probably carnivore. If you don't want to go that far, do keto or ketovore. Ketovore is more meat and less veggies than keto. Research YouTuve for Dr. Ken Berry. H has videos on diabetes and keto.
DUDE!!! Stop stop stop interrupting your guests while they are answering a question and take them off in a different direction....I WANTED TO HEAR THE WHOLE ANSWER!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love the channel and content. Really do!
@Vegas G - umm...WHO'S being RUDE, here??
@@barbarafairbanks4578 Tom is. And quest foods are rude
This is so right on for me right now. Ty. 🙏🙏🙏
I will say I never noticed this before but Going from being on keto for the better part of 6 months and then taking a few weeks off for the holidays I physically could feel the depression. Like someone could feel thirst. I of course was eating holiday sweets and lots of carbs but today I went back on keto and immediately felt better...even though I did end up having a few potatoes and carrots with my roast this is the best I've felt In the 3 weeks I was off.
I changed my diet to whole natural foods after I had a bad flu 7 years ago, and I noticed I got better fast and never got sick ever since , even to this day..and my anxiety and depression was gone!!!!
Keto or carnivore diet?
Love how everything comes down to whole foods, and tearing down the FDA
Interesting topic. I just left Walgreens and I saw magazine covers with brain health, mental wellness.
Thank you for a very interesting episode :)
Tom is a genius because he asks so many questions. Major life opiphanies don’t come from seeking answers, they come from asking questions
But he will NEVER admit that is Quest Bars are pure POISON - follow the money. He is greedy and cares nothing for the damage he is doing to people's health.

8:45 great point!!! From keto to anything else, we're not made for dieting. Eating from all the good, natural food in a right balance that's the way to go!
And eat what's in season and locally grown and bred
19:35 oh it does matter !! I've got my neighbour with an orange orchard and whenever it's harvest time I get a box full of them! This connects people's hearts! And food is throughout any culture a certain way to connect! I've grown up in the 70ies in Europe where society was still "wholesome" and now living in North Africa where still ppl live more or less that wholesome life. Greetings from a very sunny place :)
love your comment!🍊

Thank you both 🥲
We have very little data about what happens in our brain through human contact and emotions. Once we accept that and start making emotional connection with our food supply chain (literally) I’m confident we’ll see some changes for the better. Trust and confidence via connections to fellow humans rather than brands will likely greatly reduce our anxiety and inflammation.
Gosh I love this psychiatrist! The only one I'd ever want to see!
I almost dropped a happiness tear when he said "..lots of dark choclate".... :D
Antioxidants AND happiness.👍 Fancy stuff gets bonus points for happy and healthy!
Here here!
That really means 'dark', no sugar, no milk; I think.

Oxalates and high in histamine. LoL
Great guest! Can't wait to read his book!

My understanding is that the difference between growing your own food and buying from stores, is the deep joy and gratitude we now feel that Mother Earth gave us her fruit! Or vegetable. In addition studies have shown that growing our own vegetables produces specifically ingredients that are complementing the health deficit of the origins farmer! There’s some amazing research out there! The broccoli in your garden has a different vitamin and mineral content than the one from the market. The detoxification from each veggie has started specifically in that region with that air pollution and that water etc... they are our “ friends “ :-)

This psychiatrist is incredible. Great guest
I agree!
I can listen to this doctor for the rest of my life.

Same here
Thank you so much Tom for sharing this interesting conversation .
Bought the book! Thank you both.
Thank you for an interesting interview! it was a riveting watch, and Dr. Ramsey is fantastic!
I wish you will consider interviewing Dr. Natasha Campbell McBride (the GAPS diet), she is such a brilliant mind, and her knowledge can contribute immensely to many people (ill and healthy as one).
After years of hard work, living in morden society. One day I realized I belong to nature
Excellent video! Great content.
Thank you!
16:52: "I've been attacked by a rooster." 🤣
Love him. I hated shushing my kids. Or worse other people shushing them!
Sushing kids is just completely unnatural.
However, if you watch old movies or biographical movies, people (of European descent) in large cities, tenements and tall buildings often had a piano or some other musical instrument in the place and I don't think the neightbours complained so much.
Intolerance of others in high density neighbourhoods will not end well. And it is rising.
Enjoying this channel!
What an extraordinary content!
City living would be so much healthier if every neighborhood had a park!
I love coffee but you can't drink it and not expect to be anxious. Try just drinking it on the weekends. I just quit drinking it for the millionth time. I feel much better and the withdrawal has taken a few weeks to get over.
What about Decaf?
When I use to eat what ever I want I was zero anxiety!!! Limiting food is anxiety by it self.
I love your timeline
i’m 15 and was in a mental hospital for 3 months and gained 50lb while there my sister got killed and i’ve never been this heavy in my life i got so depressed once i got out which lead me to start smoking weed again after awhile i had my first drugged induced psychotic episode which was absolutely traumatizing and it happened at a gathering for my dead sister which wasn’t the best but now i’m trying to lose the weight i gained in the mental hospital and i haven’t so far it’s been a year and i eat so healthy as now i’m trying to get off my medication and find more natural ways to cope and heal
Read The Body Keeps the Score by Bessel van der Kolk. Look into Poly Vagal Theory and Somatic Experiencing. And change your diet and heal your gut.
Eat more of: More leafy greens and fermented foods, sauerkraut. If you’re already not eating processed foods with a lot of salt, make sure you get enough salt.
Too much salt is actually really bad
@@alica89ful he does actually explain the difference between salt required on a natural diet, vs excessive salt from current processed foods.
Excellent info
There are always stressors (environmental and internal). However, there is foundational basis for any response - the optimal or suboptimal function of the brain. A brain, functioning physically optimally is better able to rank stressors, react more appropriately and with better logic. This provides more time and energy for more decisions and experiences. My sense is that psychology should be two pronged: 1. Encouraging optimal brain function with ketogenic metabolism and exercise and 2. Working through stressors to determine best methods for coping
Humanity's journey out of Africa spread across the globe and settled via the coast. Seashell middens (meal waste dumps) are common early evidence of human activity. The fact that the human body does not hold onto magnesium is another indicator that seafood was an original food source.
Do you have any links to what you’ve read about what you stated? That’s interesting the body doesn’t hold magnesium. I’m intrigued.
as I am from Scotland then my ancestors ate Kale, its not consider all that exotic here, its always used as an example of an exotic food when its less exotic than bread or pasta or tomatoes or even potatoes
Thank you
Glad to see all the positive Health Stories in the Comments!
Bless and Love Going out to my Impact Family in the Comments ❤🙏💸
Please can we see Part #2 of this interview!!
I want to see more of this nutritional psychiatry
Dr Georgia Ede and the Weston A Price Foundation.
This video helped me so much and everyone comments on here. I wish food wasn’t so expensive!
What do you mean by food being so expensive? You must be buying some type of food and eating. You don't need to buy expensive meats. Even a hot dog is meat and better than the foods loaded with carbs.
Overeating itself causes heaviness and depression for many people. Lighter eating and lighter foods help keep the mood light.
I didn't know that there was a way to get a degree as a Nutritional Psychiatrist. I need to have plants around me. I'm finally starting microgardening indoors and sprouting, so I feel I have more control over the quality of the food I eat.
I've found similarly. I was eating an omnivorous 'healthy whole food' normal ie high carb, lowish fat diet for years. Cooked with those nasty seed oils because they were flogged as being healthy. It gave me gall bladder issues & incipient fatty liver disease. I ditched most carbs, ditched seed oils, added in more meat, yoghurt, bone broth, & later, red meat. Lost 10 kilos, All bloods returned to good levels, arthritis down from disabling to negligible. Anxiety & depression greatly reduced. Upon later reintroducing red meat, I noticed increased energy & a feeling of equanimity, despite facing obstacles etc. I used to have gout, but current day 'normal' carbs was the necessary substrate for that to occur. My diet is now mostly whole food, higher in fats, mostly olive oil & saturated, animal proteins, some veg, a bit of fruit, & some carbs here & there, mostly from yoghurt, milk, or occasional rice or sourdough bread. I recently ditched a1milk for a2/jersey milk (we can buy cold pressed raw jersey milk, here) & cheese, & notice less general allergy symptoms. (Lots of grass alkergies, here) each change makes a difference, but to be honest, I'm not even that diligent about it. If we're in a dash & grab food on the run, I'll still eat a big burger, just with an extra patty of bacon, no sauces or fries, & ditch half the bun, or we visit rellies on the weekend, I just select ok from what's there, & eat the cake if it looks good. I'm not that keen of seafood by try & eat it once a week. Those old druids were right in calling salmon & hazelnuts the foods of wisdom. I guess they generally ate them seasonally, in moderate amounts & usually fresh.
Great info thanks!
Insane! What are your cholesterol numbers? I switched to whole food plant based no meat dairy eggs processed foods no oils, very occasional breads, pastas and it saved my life I’m getting younger I swear!
@@JnTmarie , I don't have my results to hand, but they were all well within the normal ranges. I've never had any kind of high cholesterol, anyway. I confess, despite the weight loss, I felt some trepidation going back to my doctor for the second tests, as I am aware of the high sat. fat nature of my diet, it was a choice I'd decided to try, based upon a range of evidence, & as it pans out, he & I are both delighted with the result. I asked should I have a cac scan, & he said there was no indication of any need & so it would be unneccesary exposure to radiation. It is not "insane", when you look at some of the mechanisms behing arterial plaquing, or other risk factors behind other health issues. It appears that saturated fat & red meats have been conflated into a paradigm of risk that ignores commonly occuring co-factors. Many high & lesser profile 'health' organisations & clinicians also, took at face value the purported health claims around seed oils & assorted other dietary tropes (so did I), & now many depend on revenue from endorsing such products. (heart foundation ticks on margarines, etc). I've elderly people in my family, 97- 105, they got there on a traditional mostly local diet, & that tied in with the research I'd read. Meat off the farm or from the beach, dairy from the farm, A serve of potato was one spud, not a pile of them, carrots, peas, beans, cabbage & seasonal fruit. Plus cakes, dried fruit & nuts & biscuits on special occasions. A lunch out droving was black tea, corned beef on home made bread, & a mandarin. I certainly have more food choices than they did. Personally I would be in a world of inflammatory pain within 24 hours on your diet, but if it's presently working for you, then good.
@@surfchanty You're welcome!
Moringa helps arthritis ~ it’s awesome!!!
Excellent even for me at a ripe old age
Please get Mc Doughall and Rob H. Lustig on your show...I'm SO CURIOUS to hear their take on Keto
