Can ketogenic therapy reduce the risk of psychosis in people at high risk?

Thanks to the @BaszuckiGroup, we may soon have an answer.

"Mental illness needs visibility more urgently than almost any other area of medicine and health care."

I couldn't agree more.

Thanks to @Nature and @wellcometrust for this new initiative!

Mental health influencers: depression is made up, ADHD is a collab between Big Pharma and the cartels, Autism is just weird kids, schizophrenia is talking with god

Psychiatrists: so, what can you offer these people who may ask you for help?

@brookelynn74 @SVPhillimore Even with a DSD they are still either female or male (with a genetic condition) no one is half of each sex as a distinct sex from being male or female.

Sometimes the body goes wrong. I have proximal focal femoral deficiency which means my left femur and the bones adjacent did not develop in the womb and my leg had to be amputated so I could wear an artificial leg with a knee joint.

The usual number of legs for a human remains two. My one leg is not proof that another kind of human exists - I am a human with a genetic disorder.

Exactly the same with DSDs. The body’s failure to fully develop along either male or female lines is not proof of a third or fourth or fifth sex or proof that sex doesn’t exist. They are rare examples of genetic disorders.

I've never received as much attention from the press as over the past two weeks, all centered around one question:

Can keto "cure" schizophrenia?

Here's my nuanced response to this question.

@iain_masterton There has been zero research on impact of using desexed language in the UK and the govt health research funder has rejected funding applications because it is "terrible" to study such things and not aligned with Queer theory. Please support this petition https://t.co/mXbVJ9H9bR

As a psychiatrist, I was trained to believe that severe mental illnesses like schizophrenia and bipolar disorder were lifelong and largely irreversible—caused by faulty neurodevelopment, the kindling effect, or some form of permanent brain damage.

But when a ketogenic diet can restore brain function in some individuals—even temporarily—it challenges everything we thought we knew.

It suggests the brain may not be irreparably broken. That healing is possible. That recovery isn’t just wishful thinking, but a real, physiological process we can support.

This opens up an entirely new paradigm for treating serious mental illness—one grounded in science, metabolism, and hope.

@GappyTales The idea that a man putting on make up challenges anything is ridiculous. Wear it/don't wear it, it's hardly a one man revolution we are all shocked or impressed by. So boring and patronising

🚨BREAKING: Today We Launch a £7.9M RCT Investigating a Ketogenic Diet & NHS Eatwell Diet for Bipolar🚀

Following from our recent ketogenic diet pilot study, I'm looking forward to working with an incredible team on this project funded by @wellcometrust! 🧵

The Rights of Women
By Robert Burns 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

How our forefathers and the likes of Adam Smith and Robert Burns protected women in link below.

Douglas Ross
is absolutely correct in this link below calling out @ScotParl presiding officer.

Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿was built on the respect for women.That respect and protectionism has been eroded and left us women in ‘No Mans Land’.

It is a national disgrace that this government continues to spend our monies on court cases to defend the un defendable.

If only @scotgov had same respect as this Robert Burns poem.

The silence and respect for Scotlands women is deafening by the Scottish Government.

Any man or woman in the Scottish or the UK Parliament who does-not protect our women does not deserve to hold public office.

'The Rights of Women' also refers to the role of the female in eighteenth-century society. The poet states that 'The Rights of Woman merit some attention'.
The rights of which Burns speaks are
'protection', 'decorum' (or good manners) and
'admiration'. Society must protect and respect the delicacy of the female sex, and so Burns can be seen to assume a stance typical of his time.
The eighteenth-century notion of sentiment.

The eighteenth-century notion of sentiment propagated by enlightenment thinkers such as
Adam Smith did place women in what was considered to be a crucial role within society.

@EndoExplained @Dr_Ellie @KnightAyton You do know that a) Chinese women do get menopause symptoms and suffer from constipation b) the C.S. rate in china is 40-45%, same as USA and UK. c) women that have never given birth get meno. symptoms c) C.section does not prevent nerve damage, indeed it is a known cause of it

@Chainless_Slave Tell that to Kurdish women, or the women of Afghanistan.

@Sadie_NC Thr punishment for theft or breaking into someones house is not death. People have a right to defend themselves but not choose to murder an unarmed person at will. Property can be replaced, lives can't

@AnitaPadilla32 @TaraBull Yep! This exact scenario happened to me 2 years in a row as well, not as much as a card. I decided then and there that I would buy my own gifts when on a solo holiday to Greece. I have kept that up and travel every year to different countries on my own, that's my gift to me.

[Chris Palmer, MD @ChrisPalmerMD]

@bryan_johnson is correct in saying mental states are deeply influenced by metabolic physiology. Glucose dysregulation, inflammation, sleep disruption, hormones, medications, stress, mitochondrial function, etc. all shape cognition, mood, anxiety, emotional reactivity, etc.

That said, it’s more complex than food alone or metabolic syndrome criteria—and we should be careful with language like “craziness” or mania. People with mental illness are already stigmatized enough.

Nonetheless, science increasingly points to brain and whole-body metabolism as a powerful, underappreciated driver of mental health.
