About this episode
In this episode of The Feldman Protocol, can what we eat meaningfully influence the course of serious mental illness? Dave sits down with Lauren Kennedy West (mental health advocate and YouTuber living with schizoaffective disorder) to explore her personal journey from multiple hospitalizations and misdiagnoses to adopting therapeutic ketosis. Lauren makes the case for metabolic psychiatry as a complement to traditional care, discusses the identity challenges of sharing her N-of-1 experiment publicly, reflects on navigating medication tapering, community polarization, the role of AI in personalized care, and the social complexity of restrictive eating.🔥 This episode is sponsored by us…
