Stay Off My Operating Table 242: Your Brain Is Starving: The Metabolic Root of Depression, Anxiety, and Chronic Fatigue - Moira Newiss
Moira Newiss spent 20 years running hospitals for the UK's National Health Service before her body and mind staged a slow, invisible collapse that no blood panel could explain — and the system she'd devoted her career to had nothing to offer but a prescription she didn't want to fill. What she found instead was a framework rooted in mitochondrial biology that reframes mental illness, chronic fatigue, and burnout as problems of cellular energy rather than brain chemistry.
BIG IDEA
"Psychological stress adversely affects the mitochondria just like high-sugar diets do — and a ketogenic diet can correct things that psychological interventions alone sometimes cannot."
