Ep 155 - Dr Ede | 25 Common Foods That Trigger Dementia (EAT THIS)
Sunday, 19 April, 2026

This episode is brought to you by the⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Primal Tallow Soaps & Balms.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Is your "healthy" diet the hidden cause of your anxiety, fatigue, or depression? In this groundbreaking episode, Dr. Georgia Ede (MD), a Harvard-trained psychiatrist with over 25 years of clinical experience, joins us to break down the "chemical imbalance" theory of mental health. Dr. Ede explains the role of metabolic dysfunction in the brain. Referencing the 2026 expert-informed clinical guidance for Ketogenic Metabolic Therapy (KMT), Dr. Ede explains how glucose hypometabolism, a state where the brain can no longer effectively process sugar, leads to neuroinflammation and psychiatric symptoms. From the pathophysiology of "brain insulin resistance" to the role of cholesterol in synaptic health, this conversation provides the clarity needed to heal the mind from the root cause. Whether you are battling treatment-resistant depression or seeking to optimize cognitive longevity, this episode bridges the gap between high-level clinical research and practical human experience.
