A carnivore psychiatrist explains how to fix mental health and get lean.
Hey there, friends! Have you ever wondered if the carnivore diet could help improve your mental health? In my latest video, I sat down with Dr. Diana Deister, a psychiatrist who specializes in metabolic and nutritional psychiatry, to talk all about this fascinating connection. Spoiler: it’s a game-changer!
Dr. Deister shared her personal journey to the carnivore lifestyle. After decades of struggling with chronic constipation and feeling less than her best, she gave carnivore a try—and wow, the results! Not only did her digestion improve almost overnight, but her energy, mood, and skin all got a serious upgrade. Now, she’s helping her own patients heal with food, focusing on the power of fat and protein to support mental health.
In our chat, Dr. Deister explained how fat and protein aren’t just fuel—they’re essential building blocks for brain health. They provide the nutrients your body needs to make key neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine. Plus, by cutting out carbs, you can reduce inflammation, which is a major culprit behind so many mental health struggles.
We also dove into the gut-brain connection. Did you know that sugars and starches feed the bad bacteria in your gut, which can mess with your mood? Switching to a diet of nutrient-dense animal foods can help restore balance and set you on the path to better mental health.
If you’re curious about carnivore or want practical tips to get started, this video is packed with insights. Whether you’re dealing with mental health challenges or just looking for a way to feel your best, I think you’ll find it super encouraging.
