He lives in Jackson, Wyoming with his wife and two children. In today’s episode, Dr. Ramsey and I discuss how food can contribute to our mood. He emphasizes the importance of nourishing the brain with the right foods to optimize mental health and potentially prevent and treat mental health concerns. Dr. Ramsey also highlights the significance of educating ourselves about the nutrients our brains need, such as magnesium, vitamin E, and omega-3 fats, and where to find them in our diets. In addition to food, we touched on the topic of alternative treatments for mental health, particularly ketamine. Dr. Ramsey explained ketamine’s history, its use in treating depression, and its potential to open up neuroplastic windows in the brain, offering new pathways for healing. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in the powerful connection between what we eat and how we feel. Dr. Ramsey’s expertise and passion for nutritional psychiatry is truly inspiring, and his insights could be the key to unlocking a happier, healthier life for you!
