Is the Standardized American Diet ruining our mental health? Why is the nutritional science often unscientific? Why are the USDA’s good guidelines harmful to American health? 

According to TIME, mental health in the United States has been worsening by every metric since 2000, including a 30% increase in suicide rates. In 2021, 22.8% of American adults reported experiencing mental health issues. In late 2022, only 31% of Americans reported mental health as “excellent” when compared to about 43% from the early 2000s. 

Dr. Georgia Ede is a Harvard-trained nutritional psychiatrist, brain metabolism expert, international speaker, and best-selling author. 

In today’s conversation, a Harvard nutritional psychiatrist exposes fake nutritional science, why the USDA’s guidelines are unscientific and harmful, the truth behind vegetable oils and ultra-processed food, why superfood is a myth, what we can do to reverse our brain health, and much more. 

You can grab Georgia's new book, Change Your Diet, Change Your Mind, on Amazon and all major bookstores.
