Precision mapping of a gut-brain circuit w/ functional impact. Glands in the small intestine (Brunner's) have GLP-1 receptors, are stress-sensitive, connect to the brain via the vagal nerve, modulate bacterial species in the gut microbiome, and regulate immunity

"[T]he scientists first placed the animals on a ketogenic diet, forcing the tumors to consume fats alone, and then put them on the cancer drug. In this context, the drug cut off the cancer cells’ only sustenance – and the tumors shrank." [In mice.]

High levels of inflammation throughout childhood and adolescence, peaking at age 9 years, are associated with an increased risk of psychosis, severe depression, and higher levels of insulin resistance. Mental and metabolic health are inseparable. jamanetwork.com/journals/jamap…

Awesome news Zoltan Sarnyai. Such important work.

Excited about this RCT of the ketogenic diet compared to a diet following the Australian Guide to Healthy Eating for 14 weeks in people with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder! Do macros matter? Are there brain benefits to keto? We will soon have answers!
