Beyond the Anecdote: Keto and Carnivore Saves | Dr. Chris Palmer | EP 422
Dr. Jordan B. Peterson speaks with author, researcher, and psychiatrist Chris Palmer. They discuss how metabolic and mental disorders might be linked, depression's purpose as a biological corrective measure, how metabolism might directly tie to mental disorders, the use of fasting for medical and spiritual breakthroughs, and the research showing we have vastly undervalued the mitochondria when it comes to mental wellness.
Chris Palmer, MD is a medical doctor and psychiatric researcher working in the areas of addiction and sleep. He is also the author of 2022’s “Brain Energy,” in which he argues that mental disorders are metabolic disorders of the brain.

The attached video, filmed in 1967, highlights the mystique and misunderstanding involving LSD and psychedelics generally, which has persisted to the present day. Many of the misperceptions revolving around psychedelics fall upon the shoulders of those who, like myself, use these substances with some frequency, but then fail to communicate the myriad benefits imparted by them to the general public. In recent years, I have become a vocal advocate for psychedelics.
The first time I encountered any psychedelic substance involved LSD, at the tender age of 16. The year was 1977 when me and a good friend dropped in on a local college dormitory, where we frequently purchased marijuana. This was the pre-Reagan "War on Drugs" era, when marijuana smoke billowed out of college dorm rooms like the chimney on the Cistine Chapel during election day. On this particular occasio, there was no weed to be found, but a couple of undergraduates offered up some "acid". Neither me nor my friend had any clue of what that was, but we purchased some of this acid and ingested it shortly thereafter.
Neither of us understood the dosage of what we purchased, and quite by accident we ingested four "hits" of LSD, each. Oopsie doopsie, pilgrims... THAT was a trip! Neither of us had any inkling of what we were in for, and as the trip unfolded we found ourselves in uncharted and at times treacherous waters. The experience amounted to about 12 hours of total dissociation, when one becomes completely detached from the ego. For two young men completely ignorant to what had just enveloped them, this became an enlightening and harrowing experience.
As highlighted in the video, dissociation/detachment can be an anxiety-ridden experience for many neophytes, when it comes to the use psychedelics. I know during my first experience, when I saw my companion melt like a popsicle in the desert sun, that my anxiety was riding high. But those perceptions, and the deeply flawed manner in which I interpreted them are what caused my anxiety. With practice, I would learn that dissociation/detachment was the miracle of psychedelics, to be embraced rather than feared. Dissociation and detachment are the first steps toward enlightenment, and so psychedelics offer the potential of improving our lives beyond the imagination.
Conditions like anxiety, depression, PTSD, bipolar disorder and so on are very real illnesses, but they are rooted in our deep attachment to ourselves. Pain and anguish within a mental context arise from within, not without. When our perceptions of the universe are deeply rooted in the first person perspective, we inevitably avail ourselves to misery. When we detach from ourselves and meld with the fabric of the universe, we come to understand that there really is no self, thus liberating us from the shackles of the first person value judgements which give rise to a plethora of mental illnesses.
While psychedelics are no cure-all, they are miraculous...
It's time to take a deep breath and relaaaaax. 😮💨 It's normal to feel stress at times, but did you know that long-term stress can seriously affect both your body and mind?
Today is Stress Down Day, an initiative dedicated to raising awareness about stress in the workplace. It's the perfect opportunity to reflect on our own stress levels and find healthy ways to manage them.
To further support you in your stress management journey, have a listen to the podcast episode "Managing Stress in Pharmacy, How to Take a Deep Breath" with Minky van der Walt from Tempo Therapy. This episode looks at how the brain works to try and protect us during high stress times, but how that can backfire when stress is maintained over long periods. We get to hear how music and art therapy works and even experience a little bit of it through the course of the episode.

The video features a conversation highlighting the importance of behavior change for health improvement. The speaker emphasizes understanding personal triggers and leveraging "happy accidents"—unexpected events that positively influence behavior, such as unintentionally quitting caffeine. They advocate for proactive behavior change rather than waiting for a major life event, stressing the need to recognize and address underlying causes of habits like addiction. The key message is self-awareness and the power to control and improve one's behavior and health. https://lnkd.in/eHKwzRpP
