This is the book that will forever change the way we understand and treat mental health. If you or someone you love is affected by mental illness, it might change your life.
We are in the midst of a global mental health crisis, and mental illnesses are on the rise. But what causes mental illness? And why are mental health problems so hard to treat? Drawing on decades of research, Harvard psychiatrist Dr. Chris Palmer outlines a revolutionary new understanding that for the first time unites our existing knowledge about mental illness within a single framework: mental disorders are metabolic disorders of the brain.
Brain Energy explains this new understanding of mental illness in detail, from symptoms and risk factors to what is happening in brain cells. Palmer also sheds light on the new treatment pathways this theory opens up—which apply to all mental disorders, including anxiety, depression, ADHD, alcoholism, eating disorders, bipolar disorder, autism, and even schizophrenia. Brain Energy pairs cutting-edge science with practical advice and strategies to help people reclaim their mental health.
This groundbreaking book reveals:
why classifying mental disorders as “separate” conditions is misleading;
the clear connections between mental illness and disorders linked to metabolism, including diabetes, heart attacks, strokes, pain disorders, obesity, Alzheimer’s disease, and epilepsy;
the link between metabolism and every factor known to play a role in mental health, including genetics, inflammation, hormones, neurotransmitters, sleep, stress, and trauma;
the evidence that current mental health treatments, including both medications and therapies, likely work by affecting metabolism; and
new treatments available today that readers can use to promote long-term healing.
Palmer puts together the pieces of the mental illness puzzle to provide answers and offer hope. Brain Energy will transform the field of mental health, and the lives of countless people around the world.

En fantastisk bok! Kunde inte sluta när jag väl börjat eftersom den var så otroligt intressant. Varför har jag inte hört talas om detta i media? Det är ju enormt! Läs!

Teorin om hjärnenergi som läggs fram i den här boken är oerhört intressant och har potential att bidra till en revolution inom områdena psykisk och metabolisk hälsa! Delarna om mytokondriernas funktion är dock rätt komplexa och inte helt lätta att ta sig igenom, men fixar man det (eller slölyssnar sig igenom dem) så är detta en mycket läsvärd bok! Ett enklare sätt att ta till sig budskapet - eller bra komplement - kan vara att lyssna på någon av de många intervjuer med Dr Chris Palmer som går att hitta på nätet i flertalet poddar, filmer på YouTube osv. Särskilt intervjuerna gjorda av Tim Ferris och Andrew Huberman tyckte jag gav en extra dimension till boken eftersom Chris där delar mer av sin egen historia som lett till hans upptäckter. Jag hoppas att dessa teorier och förslag på praktiska metoder för förbättrad psykisk och metabolisk hälsa som lyfts fram i boken kommer få snabb spridning inom hälso- och sjukvården världen över!

Lite ovanlig ingång på välkända saker om vår hälsa. Mitikondrie metabolism eller inte - det är alltid bra äta rätt, motionera, ha relationer och göra något meningsfullt !
