A Roadmap to Mental Fitness and Revitalizing Your Mind. With Dr. Drew Ramsey

Today's guest is Dr. Drew Ramsey, a Psychiatrist and expert in nutrition and mental health. He’s also the author of the book, Healing the Modern Brain: Nine Tenets to Build Mental Fitness and Revitalize Your Mind. In this interview, Drew discusses the importance of mental fitness— and shares why our mental health is such a crucial part of our overall health. He delves into the connection between self awareness and mental fitness, as well as the powerful impact that lifestyle changes can have, including those related to nutrition, sleep, movement and our connection to others. He believes, as do many of our guests, that personalized nutrition is essential for addressing individual needs and body types. There’s a lot more here…from neuroplasticity to the gut microbiome and its’ impact on brain health to managing inflammation. I think you’ll get a lot from his wisdom.
