Chris Palmer, MD · Harvard Psychiatrist, Author of Brain Energy
Tighter and more focused than the Huberman episode — Palmer explains the brain energy theory, the role of mitochondria in mental illness, how ketogenic therapy and lifestyle changes improve mitochondrial health, and the impact of psychiatric medications on metabolism.
Bret Scher, MD · Cardiologist, Metabolic Mind Medical Director
Dr. Scher interviews leading researchers about the connection between metabolic health, ketogenic diets, and psychiatric conditions.

Georgia Ede on Metabolic Mind — practical and focused on which foods affect which brain conditions, what a brain-healthy diet actually needs to do, and how insulin resistance connects to psychiatric symptoms.
Shebani Sethi, MD · Stanford Psychiatrist, Founder of Metabolic Psychiatry Clinic
Dr. Shebani Sethi — who coined the term "metabolic psychiatry" and founded the first academic metabolic psychiatry clinic — explains how insulin resistance and metabolic dysfunction drive psychiatric symptoms and what the clinical evidence from Stanford's programme shows.
Chris Palmer, MD · Harvard Psychiatrist, Author of Brain Energy
Palmer's 2025 return to the Huberman Lab — an updated and expanded view of the brain energy theory, mitochondrial health, the 6 pillars of lifestyle medicine for psychiatric recovery, ketogenic therapy evidence, supplements, and the impact of ultra-processed food on psychiatric outcomes.
