Food Prescription to Treat (Mental) Illness [NPR]

 

One man's story of improving his mental and physical health with careful use of nutrition.

"People who struggle with mental illness and obesity may overeat to get adequate energy, Palmer says. Their brain cells might not process fuel from sugar properly because of genetics, a poor diet or stress from a toxic childhood. To feed their brains, they often turn to the diet plan favored by most Americans: lots of processed foods, sugar and easily digested carbs."
