Yes, alcohol and lack of physical movement are negatives for my mental state.

Thank you for a very informative and balanced discussion about this very exciting frontier of research.

There are very few psychiatrists putting this information into practice - but I am doing my best to motivate nurses to be aware of this and to assess nutrition as part of a psychiatric assessment (and to make appropriate recommendations). Patients want to get better and many patients are very willing to make changes to their diet to improve their mental well-being. I first heard Felice Jacka present her SMILES trial results at the ACNEM conference in 2017 and nutritional and lifestyle approach to psychiatry has been my passion ever since. I've presented to a number of psychiatrists, psyc nurses and run a couple of courses on this topic. The fact that nutrition isn't being addressed in mainstream psychiatry is really doing a disservice to all people struggling with mental health. (And any nurses and doctors watching this - you are not stepping outside of your scope of practice by discussing this with your patients!)

Ritual Zero Proof is an amazing alcohol-free products. My fave is the « rum » and it makes amazing mocktails. I am a big wine lover but stopped drinking 6 months ago due to acute bronchitis. It’s been such a game changer for me and I feel like a million bucks now that I don’t drink anymore. I very occasionally miss my wine but always conclude that it’s not worth it.
