Dr. Georgia Ede: Fix Your Diet by Fixing Your Mind

[@jonelleolds-ruppel1159]

Is it crazy that I tear up when I listen to Georgia Ede. This amazing Drs advice is the advice that I needed all along. Over 30 years of mental health issues all gone. All my doctors including Psychiatrists all said it wasn’t my vegan diet. I ate a very clean, no processed foods vegan diet. I was so skinny and malnourished I think they were just happy I was not overweight.

[@GeorgiaEdeMD]

It sounds like you are feeling better these days since changing your diet, and if that's the case, congratulations! What changes did you make and how did you figure out what the problem was and discover a new way of eating?

[@jonelleolds-ruppel1159]

@@GeorgiaEdeMD I’m feeling like a new person. I was vegan for health reasons so when an energy healer, yes I was searching for answers from unusual places, asked me what I was eating she said that my diet was very high oxalate and if I gradually lower I may start feeling better mentally and physically. She also explained how I was misled about fat and meat. I was willing to try anything! No one told me it could be what I was eating and very importantly what I wasn’t eating. She had gone down the same road as me. It still was a long road to feeling better but after more research I knew I had to give it a try and stay the course 😊. My doctor wasn’t happy about me weaning off psych meds and even told me she will be waiting for me to come back.

[@davidl5843]

Wonderful story - congrats on your recovery. 😊

[@theskyehiker]

Did you change your diet from vegan to something else?

[@jonelleolds-ruppel1159]

@@theskyehiker yes first very low oxalate and then to make it easier I just went carnivore.

Dr. Ede is worth the price of admission.

same for Dr. Palmer

Hey, I’m Jeff! I’m 39. I quit drinking alcohol on Jan 20th 2024(drinking since about 20yrs old). I also started eating ground beef/steaks, eggs, bacon, butter, salt. I have organic hotdogs on hand for snacking. I do drink black coffee. I also drink Silk brand unsweetened Coconut milk mixed with whey protein isolate to go with meals. I’ve always been an avid gym goer lifting weights. Push/Pull/Legs split. Sprinkle in some calisthenics sessions. Fell off cardio for a good while. Was having consistently impaired workouts due to drinking too much vodka and chasing it with whole bottles of sugary fruit juice 😵 My moods and mental health have not been the greatest over many years. I’ve often felt spaced out/disassociated (I describe it as “looking through someone else’s eyes”/low motivation (did Neuro-Feedback for short time (cost prohibitive) that showed flatline levels of brainwaves associated with motivation) Anyways..! I hope I get some of the benefits I’ve read about on KZbin from eating a carnivore diet. If I do, I’m prob going to start making at least a few videos to spread the word!

[@steelyburt]

Forgot to mention I’ve started sprinting between gym days via Dr Sean Omara. Only a few sessions under my belt but I dig it and see it being an enjoyable habit to adopt!

[@jellybeanvinkler4878]

​@@steelyburtwill look for your vids! Best wishes to you!

[@bother222]

Best luck to you🙂👍

[@GeorgiaEdeMD]

Hey Jeff--wishing you the best with your dietary changes! Just fyi a carnivore diet could make you feel temporarily worse (physically and/or emotionally) during the transition, especially if you have any medical problems or take any medications, so medical consultation is recommended.

[@iloveseaglass]

Maybe start cutting carbdy50,40,30,30 to 10 adding more meat and fat. Can help your transition

[@YisimLampiris-Tremba-fq3op]

Dr Georgia Ede, is just fantastic! She has the answer for the work she does, but will learn, research and make sure that it’s good facts. She is just wow!

[@InfinitEternaLovEmmanuel]

THIS is the practice of true “evidence based” medicine! God bless you for getting vitally important and dramatically life altering information out!!

[@bother222]

Georgia Ede among few others actually is pushing psychiatry in new direction. People need new therapies, better understanding of their conditions and most of all new hope. I bought dr Ede's book recently. Can't wait to read it!

[@GeorgiaEdeMD]

I hope you find the book useful!

[@sandym4317]

Dr Chris Palmer & Dr Ede are the 2 that have saved me with my mental recovery. Rx isn't always the only answer , but if you combine it with lower doses of Rx it works wonders in turning your mental health around. I'm hoping to stop all Rx this year because I'm improving so much.

[@GeorgiaEdeMD]

Congratulations on your recovery journey, Sandy! I hope (that in partnership with your prescribing practitioner) you find that less medication is possible but even if medication remains a part of your story it sounds like dietary changes have brought benefits regardless, which is often the case! Have a great week@@sandym4317

LOVE Dr. Ede! I had 2 strokes (and an MI) on 3/3/2022 when they were putting stents in. I had Broca's aphasia and weakness on my entire right side. A ketogenic diet (and speech therapy, Lumosity games, Duo Lingo-Spanish, etc.) helped me recover so fast I was able to go back to work exactly 2 months after my CVAs (luckily I could work from home since I wasn't allowed to drive.. ). I do still have some issues reading... my eyes don't track well. I bought Dr. Ede's book (in case I ever meet her, so I can get it autographed), but I also got the audio book.

[@GeorgiaEdeMD]

Congratulations on your speedy recovery!! What a remarkable story of healing:) Do you live in the U.S.? I'm working on figuring out a way to have signed copies sent to those who request them, perhaps by partnering with a local bookstore. Or do you think you might be at a keto conference anytime soon? I'm doing a lot of traveling this year...regardless, I am so happy for you and thank you for your interest in the book:)

[@jeankane6767]

I don’t understand why it is so hard to convince people that what we put in our bodies affects how it runs. Makes so much sense.

[@bother222]

Probably it is because of decades of social programing. That and being on a few "diets" that actually don't work.

[@saszablaze1]

coz we got domesticated, AFTER we lost our way around ice age time, when generationally we had to survive on mostly or even exclsuively meat; most of our ancestors in europe and parts of asia, and america. that happened through comfort eating of grains and potatoes and beans, and dairy! also, eating a lot of meat, or exclusively meat, you can't use your brain very well. you miss stuff. can't use logic very well. not much between the ears.

After experiencing the best year of my life with keto carnivore losing weight (48 lbs/now at ideal weight) with all issues resolved, I am trying - in vain - to help my adult children with their own children's issues: i.e., 6 year old granddaughter with out of the blue epilepsy (eats lots of sugary based foods), and a 17 year old grandson with extreme eczema on upper torso and arms (eats the poster junk foods). For the life of me I cannot get them to listen to any of my advice. Feeling so helpless, especially watching my grandkids suffer.😢🤦🏼‍♀️

Absolutely brilliant! There’s so much stellar information to digest (no pun intended!) here. I will 😮save this video to refer to countless times, I’m sure. Please forgive if this is nitpicking, but I was confused by the header of this video. Dr. Ede’s book is Change Your Diet; Change Your Mind. Shouldn’t it follow that the title of the podcast be Fix Your Mind by Fixing Your Diet? Regardless, I liked and subscribed! Many thanks. 🤗👏👏👏

Thanx Dr Ede, No question For me, clinical significance is far more accurate and precise than statistical significance. Although I am an expert in biostatistics and did a lot of research analysis using strong statistical programs but always I do respect expertise more than evidence based on statistical analysis that I consider the most truthful liar❗️❗️❗️😮😊😢

The carnivore diet is actually being used quite successfully to help overcome anorexia nervosa. I personally know one young woman who was hospitalized multiple times for anorexia and is now recovering beautifully through carnivory.

The current diet that is being recommended is what encourages eating disorders due to the hyperinsulinemia it causes. how ironic! and bless all these doctors that you interview that are true pioneers for low carb lifestyle.

What was that recent French study Georgia Eade mentions??

[@GeorgiaEdeMD]

I don't think I can include links in these comments but if you google the name of the study and the first author it should come up. Study title: The Ketogenic Diet for Refractory Mental Illness 2022 First author: Danan It's an open access study so everyone can read it

[@viome8797]

so- what diet is on Dr Ede ? She had histamine intolerance (remember that video years ago etc)

[@iloveseaglass]

Ketogenic diet. Could be Keto Ketovore or even Carnivore which I have been doing 9 months so easy feeling well. Look up Dr Ken Berry too

[@ashliehayes3384]

I'm guessing by all the information given that maybe they mean by educating yourself on nutrition you will be able to change your diet which then would also fix your mind 🤷‍♀️ I was confused too! Haha

Fix your mind by fixing your diet

[@dannykay3598]

Dr Obadiah - cmon, you’re supposed at the lack of nutrician studies when you yourself had to figure it all out on your own weight loss journey. Having said that, too bad you and Dr Ede can’t give seminars to new med students

[@smruti3744]

I am in severe imotional pain and want to die can you help me

[@iloveseaglass]

Food is thy medicine! Get off sugar! Get off carbs. Eat meat and Fat! If your drinking cut that out too. Go slow 50 carbs to 40 and so on. Carb Manager app is free and very helpful. Know you will feel so much better soon! Get outside walk!!

As everyone knows our Gut doesn't have teeth and it's only what we digest in our second brain (gut ) that our brain 🧠 can use, my grandson did the high protein diet was nearly 200 kg. Never lost a gr. Because he never chews his food INTering

Maybe call this, Fix your mind by fixing your diet? The way it is, it sounds like a mind over matter discussion. 😀

Thanks for the suggestion.

[@CalumnMcAulay]

While I appreciate the contribution she has made to the wellness community and her emphasis on meat based diets I do think she overstates the prevalence of insulin resistance in the general population.

[@lisaware9697]

The protruding belly, apple shape, and “muffin tops,” esp, are indicative of insulin resistance. It’s not quite this simple, I realize, as estrogen dominance and high cortisol are very common, too, but insulin resistance is increasing as is evidenced by skyrocketing rates of T2D.
