In this powerful conversation, psychiatrist and nutritional psychiatry pioneer Dr. Drew Ramsey joins John R. Miles to explore the critical intersection of food, thought, and mental health. Based on insights from his groundbreaking book Healing the Modern Brain, Dr. Ramsey challenges the outdated paradigm of reactive mental healthcare and instead introduces a proactive framework for cultivating mental fitness.
Together, they dive into why our brains are wired for connection and how modern life—from poor nutrition to social isolation and digital overload—is eroding that fitness. Dr. Ramsey shares practical, science-backed tools that listeners can implement immediately to begin reclaiming their mental clarity and emotional balance.
