I've spent my professional career in dentistry caring for patients. I've spent a lifetime struggling with metabolism. I've developed auto immune disease and I've been convinced for years that thyroid medication was at least an incomplete answer. Now, at 50, I have Paget's Disease and I'm instantly starting this book over to listen to it a second time. My career ended two years ago after a neurosurgeon convinced me my only answer was an MVD and it went poorly. I'm searching for my life and I think I just found some guide posts in this book. I wish I'd found it at age 25 instead of 50.

Listen to this book!! So much information, knowledge, and clarity. I chose this selection on a whim and it blew my mind. I’ve been a mechanic all my life and the idea of a root cause analysis for the human brain and mitochondria function really makes sense. I’ve seen countless issues with machines having unusual and not likely connected issues drawing to a root issue just like is explained in this book. Worthy of a listen no matter what you do or where you are in life, very valuable information that will change how we view mental illness and the human body.

While the theory still needs to be tested and proven, this is the most exciting discovery in mental healthcare since the discovery of dopamine. If mitochondria really are at the root of most mental illness, finally understanding their root cause will lead to a golden age of more and more effective tests, treatments, and preventative measures.

Too deep for this little grey matter, not a lot for me in it,

An interesting summary of the data surrounding the impact of metabolism and mitochondria as it relates to physical and mental health. Due to the nature of the information sections of the book felt a tad repetitive.

this book connected dots and and adds to the growing body of work on metabolism and the keto diet.

Loved this book and the reasoning for his theories. I absolutely hate that most physicians defer to medications for the first line of treatment instead of addressing foods as the first line of treatment. How can food NOT affect our bodies? I know that foods and their affects on individual bodies/chemistries is tedious, expensive and will not be funded by pharmaceutical companies. Therefore, food guidance isn’t “FDA approved” for diseases thus considered off-label and subject to litigation. This book is fantastic can help you or someone you love

Argument is well narrated.Book is enjoyable. Practical solutions need to be expanded in further.

Excellent
