New book: Change Your Diet, Change Your Mind by Metabolic Psychiatry Pioneer Dr. Georgia Ede

As an aside, Brett is a fantastic interviewer. He listens intently, allows his guests room to speak, asks nuanced questions and guides the interviews to smoothly cover a wide amount of ground.

I’m a huge fan of Dr. Ede and recommend her to anyone who is willing to listen!! She’s extremely knowledgeable and we are lucky to have her speaking to these issues! Thanks to you both!!

Once you find out that the American Heart Association was basically funded by CRISCO... And that they AUCTIONED OFF their "Heart Healthy" logo (they stopped when people learned about this). You start to realize... If the people doing the Recommendations are PAID FOR by PRODUCT PRODUCERS... Are they REALLY telling us the TRUTH? Or are they serving their income streams!

I just received her book. So far, it's excellent. I love Dr. Ede.

Love Dr. Edes work. Been following her since late 2016. Looking forward to purchasing her book, reading it and having it as a reference for my friends and family. I am so happy to see the needle moving in the nutritional mental health field. What you eat matters folks!!!!!!!!!

And lets not forget adequate hydration. Unexpectedly I got a stern lecture on this subject from my dental hygenist who was pretty stern with me when she had been in my mouth about a minute and told me she could tell I had not been drinking water. Dehydration is not good for the brain or for dental health.

The reason prescriptions are “required” in the US is insurance, led by Medicare. In the days before Medicare covered ostomy and other medical supplies, people who needed these could walk in any pharmacy and purchase what they needed. Once medicare began to pay, a prescription was required. Insurance followed the requirement. My opinion is that this raises the cost of administering the program.

Beat Diabetes’s YouTube channel shows how to monitor your sugar without the expensive CGM. Just use a cheap glucose monitor and check your sugar after you eat .

I have been eating carnivore for 18 months. Never hav I ever had clearer calmer mind.

This is the first time I've heard of Dr. Ede's work. I preordered her book. I'm very excited to learn more about the best way to eat for brain health!

Great podcast! Very clearly presented and made more accessible with the quality and interest of the interviewer and guest both!!! Loved it.
