What is Metabolic Psychiatry?

Metabolic Psychiatry is a new way to understand and treat mental health, by looking at the root causes in both your brain and your body. Factors like insulin resistance, inflammation, and nutrition may be driving your symptoms.

By addressing these, we support people across a range of mental health conditions, including depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, OCD, and more.
