What if the answer to better mental health isn't just in therapy or medication, but on your plate? When Dr. Drew Ramsey began treating patients with depression and anxiety, he noticed something crucial missing from conventional psychiatric approaches: nutrition. Despite extensive research connecting diet to brain health, few mental health professionals were asking patients about what they ate. This realization sparked a transformation in his practice that has since helped thousands. With mental health conditions surging globally and traditional treatments often leaving patients with side effects or incomplete relief, the emerging field of nutritional psychiatry offers a powerful complementary approach-one that puts some control back in your hands, one bite at a time.
