People with poorer glucose control show faster learning from rewards, in turn linked to higher depression symptoms. This suggests a neurocognitive bridge between metabolic disease and mood: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bpsgos.2025.100645

#MetabolicPsychiatry encourages a whole-body perspective on mental illness, acknowledging that physical health and mental health influence each other. Many risk factors can negatively impact metabolism and mental health, and a key priority is to identify the directionality of these relationships.

Could a change in diet improve mental health? Metabolic psychiatry, explained
Patients rave about how the keto diet has helped ease mental health symptoms. The data are limited, but encouraging.
