In your EP with Dr. Chris Palmer, he explains how Keto diet can help with many mental health issue but it was not clear if this is true for GAD and panic attacks. Could you provide confirmation and also provide detailed protocols or resources including a list of mental health professionals we could contact and work with online. I live in Thailand and there are no clinicians here providing support of these protocols; this could be a life savings strategies. I know many people with GAD and resulting depression who could benefits from this. I, myself, have suffered from and struggled with GAD and panic attacks for 20 years and I have tried it all: medication, meditation, Yoga, supplements, exercise, breathing methods! All these provide temporary relief however, no long term success. Thank you SO much for your Podcast and for renewing our interest in science.
As you suggested in your podcast about perfecting your sleep, we have lowered our light exposure after dusk by using dim lamps and candlelight. Is there any drawbacks from the use of candles? For example reduction in air quality due to VOCs ect? P.s. Love your podcast, a treasure trove of useful information.
The intersection of most of your subjects and my life and career is a pretty complex Ven. I’ve also been diagnosed with sleep apnea, 6’7” an ex college basketball player, now 47yo, who has ballooned up as my workouts and diet couldn’t keep up. I’m a month into “morning” sunlight (keeping flexible with my late evening flying feeling incredible results) and in the middle of the first week of exercise protocol. I’m loving it. What I’ve found are details matter. Half truths can be dangerous as I dig myself out of the rabbit hole. I’m studying your pods. What intersections can catch me off guard, and any general advise?
