Hello Tooters, has anyone #Neurodifferent or with #MentalHeath issues come across the #BrainEnergy / #Metabolism theory?
I’m not 100% sold by any means however I’m certainly intrigued. Here’s an episode of (the very good) #TheArtOfManliness podcast that dives into it. Very interested to hear other opinions.

Mental illnesses of all kinds are on the rise, and yet we seem no closer to being able to treat them effectively. We’re only able to treat the symptoms of mental illness, but aren’t often able to put the illness into remission because its root cause has been a mystery. My guest, however, believes he knows exactly what the root cause of mental illness is, and thus how to finally resolve it for good. His name is Dr. Chrisopther Palmer, and he’s a Harvard psychiatrist and the author of Brain Energy: A Revolutionary Breakthrough in Understanding Mental Health.
