Sugars and Oxidative Stress

• • More kids than ever are presenting with psychological problems. (2:00)
    • Vinnie mentions Robyn Dobbins, who openly shares how diet has improved her mental health symptoms.
  • People are feeding their brains improperly. (4:30)
    • There have been decades of misinformation, so treatment has been off.
    • Everyone deserves the correct information upfront rather than having to go through multiple medications. (7:00)
  • Georgia goes through her personal history and how she stumbled onto dietary health changes.
    • Sweeteners have many side effects. (16:00)
    • Sugar is the only addictive substance that society sanctions for children. (20:00)
      • It is not only addictive, but it is also physically damaging to the brain because it creates oxidative stress in the brain. (24:00)
      • Refined flours do the same by causing a glycogen load; as a result, your insulin is raised longer. (25:00)
  • Most people are metabolically broken, so sugars and carbs are even more harmful.
  • If your body “needs” sugar, your body will make it. Fats and proteins are essential, but carbs are not. (31:00)
  • The FDA recommends a bunch of nonsense.
  • And now our gut health is a topic that needs to be paid attention to.

Better Mental Health

• Vinnie knows people whose adult kids are still having issues, but refuse to believe that diet can help. (38:00)
• Georgia always uses dietary interventions first, and she has found them to be the most effective for her clients (41:00)
  • There are certain foods the brain needs. It’s not just junk food that hurts, but also foods we’ve been told are healthy that aren’t (like whole grains).
• Dr. Ede's book Change Your Diet, Change Your Mind addresses dietary therapy as a first step. (45:00)
• They discuss many different things that have been happening in the news, which are examples of declining mental health. (48:00)
• Vinnie asks how you get more N=1 cases on the books to demonstrate the advantages of diet and mental health.
• Changing your diet is a change for the better.
• You can find Dr. Ede at https://diagnosisdiet.com.
  • You can also find a clinician’s directory on her website.
  • Another resource is the Charlie Foundation: https://charliefoundation.org
• The keto diet is safe, but there is still a transition, especially if you are on medication.
