Congratulations to @ShebaniMD and collaborators at @Stanford on the publication of their pilot study of a #ketogenicdiet for bipolar disorder and schizophrenia!
🧠 79% had clinically meaningful psychiatric improvement measured by Clinical Global Impression (CGI).
👉 100% reversed metabolic syndrome
👉 Average weight loss was 10% of body weight over 4 months
💬Quotes form participants:
“Since being on the diet, I haven't noticed any significant anxiety level or attacks. And I've been able to work through basically everything I've come across.” "It can honestly save a lot of lives, it saved mine. I would not be here today if it wasn't for Keto. It's helped a lot with my mood Stabilization.” “[…] if things continue in a positive trajectory, it's definitely not out of the real[m] of possibility that my bipolar could go into remission.” “My opportunity to participate in the metabolic psychiatry study transformed my life. I gained knowledge, became able bodied again and my mood disorder and eating disorder symptoms lessened dramatically. I became sexually active again after 16 years of celibacy.” “I can tell you that I have never felt better than I have since using ketosis, it worked far better than the lamotrigine ever did.”
They told us in medical school that cholesterol causes heart attacks.
3,000 surgeries taught me that it is just not that simple.
Reply "Yes" and I'll send you the 5 things I wish knew earlier about cholesterol.
To those who have fallen in love with Nick & Charlie, cried watching Alice Oseman's magical story brought to life, or felt represented for the first time on-screen, I am elated to announce...

Great blog from @MadameOrrocks for @Mental_Elf on predictors of engagement with mental health apps ‘in the wild’ Those featuring peer support are favoured https://t.co/mKRLpDdyBo
"Alongside more traditional research, we should use internet analytics to understand how to maximise the potential of mental health apps."
