Fix Your Brain by Fixing Your Body: Metabolic Psychiatry Explained by Dr. Shebani Sethi

For too long, psychiatry has treated mental illness as if it lives
only in the brain. But what if the real story begins in the body?
My guest today, Dr. Shebani Sethi, is a Clinical Associate
Professor at Stanford and founding director of the Metabolic
Psychiatry Program, the first clinic to unite psychiatry with
nutrition and metabolism. On this revealing episode of The Dr.
Hyman Show, we explore how shifts in metabolism affect the brain
and why this whole-body lens could transform how we prevent,
understand, and treat mental health. Watch the full conversation on
YouTube, or listen wherever you get your podcasts. We discuss: •
How to recognize metabolic red flags behind mood and focus • Tests
you can ask for to uncover hidden drivers of mental health •
Everyday steps to restore brain energy and resilience • Foods and
nutrients that calm inflammation and support cognition Dr. Shebani
Sethi coined the term Metabolic Psychiatry, capturing what I’ve
long believed and explored: that mental health begins in the body.
Embracing this shift could reshape how we treat the mind and how we
live each day. View Show Notes From This Episode Get Free Weekly
