Thank you so much for this fantastic interview, Iain and Matt. I appreciate Andrew sharing his insights as a person with type 1 diabetes, the mental and metabolic consequences of poor glycemic control, and his expertise in the field of therapeutic carbohydrate restriction. As a registered dietitian and proponent of ketogenic and low carb diets for diabetes, mental health conditions, and metabolic health, I found this discussion extremely valuable. Thanks again!

I'm back working full time shift work because of low carb, healthy eating, hiit excercise, fasting.....I go for low inflammation, ketones, autophagy....the opposite of the western diet that walks the human body off a cliff and into the arms of pharma.

Congratulations! I've found IF very useful too in combination with Keto. Let me know if you ever would like to come on the podcast to share your story.

I’m so thankful I found this channel. I have a daughter with bipolar and I have depression. Each video gives me hope that relief and wellness is possible.

Never give up, never settle, there is always hope! I believe we will advance the treatment for bipolar significantly over the next decade through what we are learning about brain metabolism.

Phenomenal interview. Mental health is such an overlooked topic in type type 1 diabetes, and even when it IS addressed, there are few solutions. Normalizing blood sugar makes a dramatic difference in mental health. When blood sugar is high, we are literally peeing away the nutrients needed to make neurotransmitters. Great information Andrew.

Every interview is awesome, helpful, inspiring - thanks for taking time to help others, Iain & Matt!

Dr Koutnik makes a great point that our loved ones, when ill, do not have the motivation or energy to research what works. It takes the fierce dedication of family to walk alongside the person with the illness. Dr Campbell,I am looking forward to hearing about the results of your study. Matt, Dr Campbell thank you for being a bright light in this community.

Bipolar disorder has essentially destroyed my life. I would like to start a keto diet as ive tried everything. However it seems complicated. Do you use any devices to track your ketones? Ive read multiple anecdotal stories of people plateauing on keto who then resolved their mental issues on carnivore diet. That diet is even more restrictive though and life is miserable enough with bipolar. Would appreciate if you could point me to some sources on where i can start and make sure my brain starts using ketones please.

if your in the USA, the best would be to get Dr Chris Palmer MD as your shrink and keto diet expert.. Specially when one does keto for bipolar its best specially in the beginning to track your ketones. And one of the best choices, price wise and accuracy, would be the keto mojo. Even If you would like to do carnivore diet, thats ways more easy once your already used to doing a ketogenic diet. Many that do carnivore did keto for years before. So even if it would have more benefits, as you say it would be too restrictive to start with, or for you right now. One thing for sure one needs a therapeutic classic ketogenic diet, not for weight loss. Many that promote keto promote a high protein diet, while for mental issues , one needs moderate protein. And one can track with keto-mojo when it becomes too much protein. but in general for a male is about 80-100 grams of protein per day and eh 180-200 grams of fat each day. One can relatively easy vut out the carbs from the diet, but I would ease in consuming like 200 grams of fat a day. Slow raising the dose of fat. But right at the start do consume more fat they your normally used to and slowly raise it to 180-200 grams a day. and look up keto flu= add some salt to your water. One also might want to use the salt that has 50-50 sodium chloride and the other half potassium chloride. Its about 1 gram protein per kilo ideal body weight. Another source may be the Charlie Foundation. they have a list of dieticians for the true classic ketogenic diet for epilepsy. and as for Bipolar one needs a keto diet that is the classic diet, as many out there do coaching for keto for weight loss. and not focused on mental health.

Thank you!

Thanks for highlighting the amount of work that goes into managing a chronic illness. It's a lot but it's doable and worth it.

As a parent of a 19 y/o with bipolar 1 diagnosis, for 1 1/2 years I tracked & graphed symptoms & triggers. The visual representation of this data was one of the major factors in opening my son’s awareness of the patterns & impact of triggers (THC or
