#44 Eat To Beat Depression with Dr Drew Ramsey

Today on the podcast I speak with Drew Ramsey, MD who is a leading innovator in mental health, combining clinical excellence, nutritional interventions and creative media. He is an Assistant Clinical Professor of Psychiatry at Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons and in active clinical practice in New York City.

His work and writing have been featured by The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Lancet Psychiatry, and The Today Show, BBC, and NPR, which named him a “kale evangelist.” He’s given two TEDx talks with a third coming this Fall. He is the author of three books, Eat Complete: The 21 Nutrients that Fuel Brain Power, Boost Weight Loss and Transform Your Health, 50 Shades of Kale, and The Happiness Diet. His e-course, Eat To Beat Depression, helps people maximize their brain health with every bite.

He is on the Advisory Board at Men’s Health, the Editorial Board at Medscape Psychiatry, and is a Scientific Adviser to the stigma-fighting non-profit Bring Change To Mind.

The subjects that I spoke about with Drew on the podcast covered the following:

Drew’s background and his journey to Food (and Kale in particular)
What his clinical practice currently looks like and the conditions he sees regularly
What Nutritional Psychiatry means to him and how he practices it with patients
Some of his Patient experiences
How to overcome the 3 barriers to nutritional change (complication, time and money, over reliance on supplements)
The 21 nutrients of transformation
Inflammation as a cause of depression
The many different types of depression – emotions, neurochemical and the others we have yet to define
