Please help us ask for a reversal of this decision by signing Dr. Christopher Palmer's petition. It takes less than 30 seconds! www.change.org/p/help-us-protect-a-landmark-research-study-for-serious-mental-illness
Hi big pharma is going down. Many of the drugs are filled with ingredients to do more harm than good. Soon the whole medical system will be removed and holistic natural ways of healing are coming. As for Keto diet the reduction of junk food and processed foods brings people restoration of health. The carnivore diet works well too. On carnivore people mostly eat meat eggs bacon food sh and seafood and people lose weight regain health and I can personally say that after being on carnivore for almost a year health weight loss and a more peaceful mentality help me have great peace. I wish you peace health and happiness.
Or patents and insurance; risk The dsm legal system education criminal justice past present cases and overturning whatever. Even if it could be another trendy scam with a bribe study it opens up too much chaos Even If rendering all those medications useless could 10x your portfolio your still letting other instruments wither away the gain as the system they depend on erodes 😂 Opportunity cost may not work out in the favor of shooting the whole system in the foot but one will figure out how to aim and game this. Change labels way up stream in the food production complex and you have a situation like in scorpion where some hackers changed all the barcodes on the blood types. You do something like that to antibiotics and you get a pre anti biotic mortality rate from allllll the things that used to kill us seasonally. Keep that in mind. And what will I be getting from door dash that chat gpt designed for my microbiome to make me more crazy if I was OK before the turducken sauce and videos about being a crystalline chosen one... 😂 Get outta town....
If I was big pharma, I certainly would not want something a simple as dietary changes to jeopardize my medication profits. Regulatory capture is terrible with its profits above people. Keep going!
this is 100% true. When I went on a Keto diet, I stopped needing big pharma almost entirely. I've had the same 200 count bottle of Advil since 2020. I take a dose maybe 2x a year.
But if pharma was really looking at she said some of these side affects of medication is so high that people won’t even take the meds to get therapeutic benefits which means patients are not paying for meds they won’t take
@@cerissabrown3487 I assume sometimes they pay for the meds and put them on a shelf, which would mean patients or insurers are paying for meds, even if they are left in the medicine cabinet past the point they expire.
My mom was on anti-psychotics from before I was born. She used to do the Atkins diet from time to time and seemed to do really well on it. My brother committed suicide when he developed symptoms. God bless this lady for her work. 🙏
There is nothing that upsets the nutritional science establishment more than low carb. They have an almost religious opposition to it. That and saturated fat. Stick with the DASH diet of you want funding. It won't work, but you will have funding.
Or maybe, just maybe, psychiatrists who know that inmates who can't even stand trial for psychiatric reasons can't consent to scientific studies, either, are at work? Lol. You keto cultists are delulu.
This is my mom, please support this and sign the petition! It’s for a really good cause and it helps patients out tremendously!! She has worked so hard for many many years to be able to help and provide support to patients and it’s been taken away for no reason

What’s sad is that as an MD anesthesiologist I do anesthesia for ECTs (electroconvulsant therapy) all the time for treatment resistant patients and dislike it very much. But these patients have no other options. This seems so promising. I wish this health board could see these patients and witness what they have to go through when a dietary change coukd help them remarkably.
Maddening! I'm day 88 of carnivore, In ketosis since early March and I've seen more benefits in 4 mths than 20 yrs of other treatments. I started an Agoraphobia July Challenge, to go out every day for July. I'm a housebound agoraphobic. I can't remember the last time I left me home every day, but it's been around 15 yrs. This would have been impossible to even think about before carnivore. I will shout from the roof tops about what's happening to me. People are suffering. I suffered for 20 yrs and they shut down a study! Disgraceful
@@ani1344 no it's not. Debilitating ocd, social anxiety and depression too. I've started documenting on my channel bc it really is making a difference for me. If it can work on me, it can help anyone
I’m proud to say that I too have gone carnivore. Also am amazed by the way my mental depression and panic attacks are gone. It’s so simple once a person goes through the little withdrawals for sugar and bread 😊
To shut it down without offering a coherent explanation is simply an abuse of power. Until proven otherwise, this is a case of "l have the power so i'll do as i wish"
It's not an "abuse of power" for government to say it's not going to pay for a research project. Government does this all the time, particularly with NASA and defense research. Government priorities change. Budgets get reviewed and new things get prioritized. This study was being funded by the state of Maryland and they said they didn't want to pay for it. Maybe they're trimming budgets to find money to fix the bridge in Baltimore that got destroyed by a ship a few months ago.
As a psychiatrist and researcher myself I must say that it's very unfortunate that the study was put on hold / shut down. It's hard to get funding from NIH (CIHR in Canada). Private funding should be fine - pharma companies are sponsoring studies left and right. Also, the use of the ketogenic diet seems to be on a safer side of research and there are a lot of studies showing that it's relatively safe in general. Hope you get your green light.
Love hearing you both speak. This is such an important study. My 60 year old cousin recently passed away after nearly 40 years of intractable schizophrenia, with the last 20 years in a total care facility. To open new doors of treatment is so important. Best to you doctors and keep up your good work :) Yes, I signed the petition!
Signed the petition AND donated. This kind of nonsense will NOT end unless we rise up, put our money where our mouths are, and DEMAND that our voices be heard!!!
I signed the petition yesterday and re-posted on ketogenic subreddits. I’m going to write a letter and snail mail it. I’m hoping that will get their attention.
I’m a survivor of psychiatric medications They were started for preventive migraine treatment when I started peri menopause. What a disaster. I never thought I’d be anti-medication. I’m a retired RN. These meds should only be used in extreme cases not given out like candy to the average person going through a hard time in life.
@@rdallas81 I took amitriptyline for about 5 years in my 30s. I actually had the best success with it but I had no sex drive at all so I chose to discontinue it. It took me about 3 years to sleep properly again. I was taking 50mg. With perimenopause in my 40s, the headaches got much worse and were diagnosed as chronic and my mom was diagnosed with ALS. They had me try Cipralex, Zoloft, Effexor, and Fetzima. I’m in Canada so some of the names might be different. Also there was trazadone for sleep, nortriptyline top ups to the SSRI or SNRI. And my favourites the gabapentin and topiramate. There was maxeran and stemitil for my nausea. I was on something called pizotifen which is an seratonin antagonist. I was desperate to get back to work and I wanted to avoid opioids or other pain meds. I ended up with a benzo dependency and opioid addiction. I asked to see a psychiatrist because I was having hypomanic episodes. They saw me for 10 minutes and said I had BPD or Bipolar. Happy ending though because I’m off everything but gabapentin. I’m waiting for my hot flashes to improve to start weening off that. I want to tell my story but I have to wait for my brain to recover a bit more.
I’ve been ketogenic for over 2 years for metabolic reasons, but my well drug-controlled epilepsy, caused by massive brain bleed during surgery has now dramatically improved on much lower dosing! I can’t afford to monitor glucose, nor ketones, so studies supporting the obvious brain effects of ketosis may have offered me benefits to monitor myself closely. I am very upset that this supportive study was shut down!
Makes you start to question why there has been so many roadblocks to comprehensive patient care in psychiatry in general for the last 40 years plus. I work in a small emergency department and the care for patients with severe mental illness is appalling. Give me a break, there seems to be some shady stuff going on behind the scenes and it needs to stop
Thank you for your video and mentioning the petition. I just signed the petition. I didn't know much about the issue. As for using Keto diet for treating sounds like a good treat for schizophrenia. I have been on keto myself and even as a regular person it has helped me lose weight heal my body. Now I am on carnivore diet for almost a year and have lost weight an improving my health even more. I have enough experience with both keto and carnivore are very good for health weight loss and even promoting peace and tranquility. Changes are coming soon to the world then I believe future funding for the novel idea for helping people get these benefits. Please do not give up . Soon this study and many other worthwhile ways to help people will be implemented. Get ready this and many other good and beneficial things are coming soon. Do not give up.
Scott was a vice president at Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield, which is a health insurance company. No surprise that she wouldn't want her previous employer to lose money. Psych meds are expensive!
Even though I’m an advocate for ketogenic modalities for mental health and cohost a podcast about it, I have people in my circle who don’t believe in this modality. Nevertheless, I pushed past my comfort zone and asked some of these people to sign the petition and explained why, and I’m happy to say some of them, surprised me in a wonderful way! I encourage you to ask people you’re not sure about.
They just prioritise Industrial Interests ahead of the Interests of those with mental health conditions . Big Pharma could lose money if more Patients do keto instead of anti-psychotics etc for schizophrenia .The good news is that keto does improve mental health symptoms and Loren Herrera Scott is not needed .I know because I taught myself how to do a keto diet since 2,022 ,and it does work.
Is this the first sign of push back to the inroads that the low carb/ ketogenic diet has made in recent years in North America? Shades of the battles waged by Prof Noakes and Gary Fettke.
Big Pharma would lose out if improved nutritional health prevented and eliminated the need for drugs. Such a world we in the West live in. I signed your petition.
@jangrosemartindale8740 there is billion of dollars at stake. The food processors, the packaging manufacturers, the plastic and ink producers, the wholesalers ,the retailers the transporters, the GPs and the Pharmaceutical companies
Big pharma and big food strike back..but its too late ...Im a mental health clinician and on a daily basis I promote low carb or keto to clients ...I encpurage them to watch Dr Ken Berry and this channel❤❤❤
I just sign in petition for my fv.doctor Chris Palmer, who ssved me with epileptic seisures and angiodeama anaphalethic that was due to those toxic meds i use to take that almost killed me in 2022😢. Also dr. Chris Palmer had a podcast with dr. Ken Berry on youtube, and that's how i found out about keto/fasting puts in remision epileptic seisures, and have people with Autism gets much better. I put my so with Autism on keto/fasting since 2022. He is now 30 years old and he is so much alert,focus and for the first time in 30 years of his life,he call me MOM❤ . Thank you both doctors and God bless you both for saving millions of lives including ours❤🙏🤝🤲🤝🙏
healthcare priority not on the right thing we focus on sick care keeping pt stuck in their sickness...I am taking back my health by applying carnivore in my own life
May need to have study resume in another state that support this work so it can continue if the block isn’t removed. And someone needs to this group that is blocking that study to court!
Because they don't want people to find out that to get better, all it takes is good nourishing food smh - meat and animal fat. We're dealing with evil right here, right now and we need to push back. They do not care about us or our well being, they only care about money.
Sorry to hear the Massachusetts Health Department made this ruling. I am so weary of state agencies overstepping their authority and acting as antagonists to the citizens' interests. Please place weekly updates on social media to give a wider audience of people the opportunity to learn about this situation and to let them know how to inquire and petition multiple branches of MA government.
Why should private companies with a profit interest take care of our healthcare, getting well is a lost customer, lifelong medication is what they want.
This is a good sign. I wondered how long it would take for profit-motivated medicine to realize that a new much more effective medical paradigm had arrived and would threaten their bottom line. That time as arrived!
I am only an N=1, but keto cured my depression. I am disgusted with the decision to shut down your study. Omgosh. How can "someome" stop such important research??!!!
SHAME. SHAME. SHAME. Health Department?? More like Death Department. When are these cartels going to be reigned and allow people to make their own decisions for the OWN bodies? This just makes me sick.
Whatever. Your attempt to Straw Man my statement is pathetic. And, finally, just in case your knowledge of history is as bad as your spelling, Dr Mengele was a member of the German Government.
@@thereligionofrationality8257 oh im sorry i thought you were saying government shouldnt have any say in ehat experiments are done on people. Which would indeed by very silly. My bad.
In some countries there is a law which allows to sue a body for unjustified unsubstantiated and malicious blockade. Maybe you should try it in US as well...
I can not sign the petition. For some reason it didn't except my signature. I strongly believe in this research. We have failed with medication. Please help us bring back our beautiful children who are effected. If this research helps it will be life changing for those who have no hope for a cure at this time and are truly living in a never-ending torturous nightmare in their minds.
I wish you all the luck in getting this study going again. My brother was a treatment resistant paranoid schizophrenic and he was on a injection anti-psychotic. When he passed, it was a month before his 25th birthday and in the toxicology report from the coroners office he had a fatal level of his anti-psychotic medication built up in his system. His injections were administered only by a nurse. The medication doesn’t leave the body the same way other medications do. If there had been an alternative option for treatment that worked better than the injection, like a ketogenic diet? It’s a real possibility that he would still be here today…
My mom was heavily medicated for the last 13 years of her life. She lost the ability to relate to us. I guess you can say I lost her way before she died.
The priority is not health and healing. Customers are priority, not cures. Profit over people. Everyone under the illusion that the institutions have our best interest at heart needs to get out of the land of smoke and mirrors. The torture of these individual humans for entertainment and profit is diabolical.
My son has suffered since 2015 with treatment resident schizophrenia. Unfortunately he receives his treatment from the VA and they have established his baseline and his doctor won’t try any different medication because she doesn’t want to increase any symptoms. It is malpractice as far as I’m concerned. They should always strive to find something that will improve the quality of life. Wish we could afford a private physician.
I had blood work done two days ago and it showed my ketos to be off the charts for my local hospital at 50mg+ in my blood. I have never taken their pills and never will and I have schizophrenia. Is my keto level why I am stable?
Come you 2, u know exactly what is going here!! Follow the money. Dont be afraid to say it. Not only does big pharma lose out if people get healthy, so does big grain and big sugar. (Although they could all re invest in regenerative livestock farming instead)
THE explanation is that government must represent the people & they have jobs & income they'd like to keep, and research that would majorly trash the jobs/investments economy is not welcome. A sudden switch of most people to a mostly KETOgenic diet bcz they heard it would help their health best, would RADICALLY alter the economy & farming permanently.
Puzzle solved: a quick Google search reveals that Scott was a vice president at Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield, which is a health insurance company. No surprise that she wouldn't want her previous employer to lose money. It's a clear conflict of interest for her to be in charge of approving research. Psych meds are expensive! I was on one medication that cost $800/month.
This rhymes with so many other decisions over the past 40 years. The covid response was particularly corrupt and nonsensical. What I used to believe was ignorance among high standing public health officials I now understand as selfish intent.
It seems research into natural therapies, spiritual practices, and a diverse range of psycho social therapies for mental and emotional challenges occurs in dribs and drabs over time. Due to conflict of interest. Lack of funding. Lack of financial incentive. Philosophical differences. The mental healthcare system is designed for Business first. Health second. It needs to be turned on its head.
I signed the petition but of course it asks for money. Screw that. It’s rather disgusting that every damn time I want to sign a petition for a good cause, it is monetized either by begging for money or selling my information. Stop that shit if you want to really be taken seriously.
You are in Maryland. That was your first mistake. But thankfully, everyone who is on keto or carnivore already knows that low carbs or no carbs are essential for good health.
A pure Carnivore diet has had amazing benefits when it comes to many mental illnesses, especially depression and anxiety. I am eating this way after a lifetime of battling depression and anxiety and have had amazing health benefits. Prescription drugs for over a decade did nothing to help me... the way to go is Carnivore eating... do some research and see what people say.
If someone is copper toxic and goes on a ketogenic diet, the diet can help reduce inflammation but the diet can also cause someone to begin to release toxins from fat cells, which can cause worsening of symptoms. The first line of defense is to get unbound copper levels measured through ceruloplasm, serum levels and also HTMA. Then you would want to do a detox of unbound copper and heavy metals and do mineral balancing before doing just straight keto, as fat cells releasing these toxins can skew the results of a keto study.
@@BeatrizHatfield-vc4ig The toxic release doesn’t always show up in big symptoms but in small ways and small amounts until you develop things like MCAS or MS or weight gain despite diet. It took 3 straight years of keto, weight loss and improvement before I found out I had been releasing and redistributing toxins in my body. Now I have quite the mess to untangle. Going slowly with diet change while getting HTMA, mineral balancing and heavy metals removed can be amazing and powerful. Test…don’t guess.
Please help us ask for a reversal of this decision by signing Dr. Christopher Palmer's petition. It takes less than 30 seconds!

Nevertheless, I pushed past my comfort zone and asked some of these people to sign the petition and explained why, and I’m happy to say some of them, surprised me in a wonderful way! I encourage you to ask people you’re not sure about.
Signed the petition...this is unbelievable!
Why would they discriminate regarding privately-funded research?
They just prioritise Industrial Interests ahead of the Interests of those with mental health conditions . Big Pharma could lose money if more Patients do keto instead of anti-psychotics etc for schizophrenia .The good news is that keto does improve mental health symptoms and Loren Herrera Scott is not needed .I know because I taught myself how to do a keto diet since 2,022 ,and it does work.
Control over the discourse clearly. They have no valid excuse for doing this.
We really don't know!
He who holds the purse strings controls the project. Public study = beaurocrat control
@@anthroariel But this was a Privately funded Study !!!
Is this the first sign of push back to the inroads that the low carb/ ketogenic diet has made in recent years in North America? Shades of the battles waged by Prof Noakes and Gary Fettke.
Big Pharma would lose out if improved nutritional health prevented and eliminated the need for drugs. Such a world we in the West live in. I signed your petition.
Big Ag & the major processed food manufacturers’ & their shareholders would also be affected
@jangrosemartindale8740 there is billion of dollars at stake.
The food processors, the packaging manufacturers, the plastic and ink producers, the
wholesalers ,the retailers the transporters, the GPs and the Pharmaceutical companies
This is such great news for the field, to acknowledge the failure, and the rectification for change for the field. I'll sign!
Big pharma and big food strike back..but its too late ...Im a mental health clinician and on a daily basis I promote low carb or keto to clients ...I encpurage them to watch Dr Ken Berry and this channel❤❤❤
Have you seen Dr Shaun Baker with the rest home owner that put patients on a carnivore diet and reversed in some dementia
Appreciate your channel and the work you are doing! Signed petition and donated.
We all need to pray for the day that truly helping people heal is more important than keeping people sick for profits comes soon God Bless ya all
God bless your critical work. May you succeed in opening the minds and hearts of the bureaucrats standing in your way.
Signed the petition through a link from Dr. Shawn Baker. Good to see this interview. Why do they not want us well!?!
I just sign in petition for my fv.doctor Chris Palmer, who ssved me with epileptic seisures and angiodeama anaphalethic that was due to those toxic meds i use to take that almost killed me in 2022😢. Also dr. Chris Palmer had a podcast with dr. Ken Berry on youtube, and that's how i found out about keto/fasting puts in remision epileptic seisures, and have people with Autism gets much better. I put my so with Autism on keto/fasting since 2022. He is now 30 years old and he is so much alert,focus and for the first time in 30 years of his life,he call me MOM❤ . Thank you both doctors and God bless you both for saving millions of lives including ours❤🙏🤝🤲🤝🙏
healthcare priority not on the right thing we focus on sick care keeping pt stuck in their sickness...I am taking back my health by applying carnivore in my own life
The problem is that this trial could adversely affect Pharma revenues …. and the medical system COULDNT allow that.
Let thy food be thy medicine-
Not your medicine as food!
May need to have study resume in another state that support this work so it can continue if the block isn’t removed. And someone needs to this group that is blocking that study to court!
Signed the petition, keep up your efforts, your work is important. Cheers. :)
Any chance this Dr. Laura Herrera Scott comes to the Maryland Health Secretary position from the Pharmaceutical industry? Money, and nothing but money
Because they don't want people to find out that to get better, all it takes is good nourishing food smh - meat and animal fat. We're dealing with evil right here, right now and we need to push back. They do not care about us or our well being, they only care about money.
Signed the petition. This is such important research!
Sorry to hear the Massachusetts Health Department made this ruling. I am so weary of state agencies overstepping their authority and acting as antagonists to the citizens' interests. Please place weekly updates on social media to give a wider audience of people the opportunity to learn about this situation and to let them know how to inquire and petition multiple branches of MA government.
Don't you understand that this would hurt the profits of big pharma!?! That would be terrible for our psychopatic overlords! 😢
because diet does not make big pharma any money make no mistakes the diet/lifestyle movement is a direct threat
By only allowing public funding means CDC control which only does the bidding of pharma.
This is so sad.
Why should private companies with a profit interest take care of our healthcare, getting well is a lost customer, lifelong medication is what they want.
It is evil to call Lucky Charms healthier than an egg. Follow the money.
Heartbreaking
Living well with schizophrenia channel is working with keto and supplements and showing the progress as they go. Very interesting progress being made.
This is a good sign. I wondered how long it would take for profit-motivated medicine to realize that a new much more effective medical paradigm had arrived and would threaten their bottom line. That time as arrived!
I am only an N=1, but keto cured my depression. I am disgusted with the decision to shut down your study. Omgosh. How can "someome" stop such important research??!!!
SHAME. SHAME. SHAME. Health Department?? More like Death Department. When are these cartels going to be reigned and allow people to make their own decisions for the OWN bodies? This just makes me sick.
The drug companies pulled strings with massive payments to have it stopped. It’s always about money.
How can a State Health Department have ANY say as to which clinical studies go forward? This is so obviously illegal. Take them to court.
Lol. Yeah whoever wants to do whatever tests lets have zero oversight. Dr mengela can finnally go back to his work. Smh.
Whatever. Your attempt to Straw Man my statement is pathetic. And, finally, just in case your knowledge of history is as bad as your spelling, Dr Mengele was a member of the German Government.
@@Padraigp Whatever. Your attempt to straw man my statement is silly. Oh, and by the way, Dr Mengele was a member of his country's government.
@@thereligionofrationality8257 oh im sorry i thought you were saying government shouldnt have any say in ehat experiments are done on people. Which would indeed by very silly. My bad.
In some countries there is a law which allows to sue a body for unjustified unsubstantiated and malicious blockade. Maybe you should try it in US as well...
This needs to go viral
I can not sign the petition. For some reason it didn't except my signature. I strongly believe in this research. We have failed with medication. Please help us bring back our beautiful children who are effected. If this research helps it will be life changing for those who have no hope for a cure at this time and are truly living in a never-ending torturous nightmare in their minds.
I wish you all the luck in getting this study going again. My brother was a treatment resistant paranoid schizophrenic and he was on a injection anti-psychotic. When he passed, it was a month before his 25th birthday and in the toxicology report from the coroners office he had a fatal level of his anti-psychotic medication built up in his system. His injections were administered only by a nurse. The medication doesn’t leave the body the same way other medications do. If there had been an alternative option for treatment that worked better than the injection, like a ketogenic diet? It’s a real possibility that he would still be here today…
We are so sorry for your loss. Thank you for sharing your brother's story with us.
I’m so sorry for your loss. 🙏🏻
i would like to see a study dun in a prison setting.
Can Dr Kelly do this study in another state? It must be continued!
My mom was heavily medicated for the last 13 years of her life. She lost the ability to relate to us. I guess you can say I lost her way before she died.
Cant prescribe drugs for things that dont exist anymore.
they would have to go into ranching.
This changes everything. The concerns are for that reason and not in line of servicing humanity. Start another way to resource.

The priority is not health and healing. Customers are priority, not cures. Profit over people. Everyone under the illusion that the institutions have our best interest at heart needs to get out of the land of smoke and mirrors. The torture of these individual humans for entertainment and profit is diabolical.
All facts..
Seen it..
The mode of action for aspirin wasn't known until the 2000s. The powers that be would never have allowed it to be researched
My son has suffered since 2015 with treatment resident schizophrenia. Unfortunately he receives his treatment from the VA and they have established his baseline and his doctor won’t try any different medication because she doesn’t want to increase any symptoms. It is malpractice as far as I’m concerned. They should always strive to find something that will improve the quality of life. Wish we could afford a private physician.
I had blood work done two days ago and it showed my ketos to be off the charts for my local hospital at 50mg+ in my blood. I have never taken their pills and never will and I have schizophrenia. Is my keto level why I am stable?
Have signed and donated.
Come you 2, u know exactly what is going here!! Follow the money. Dont be afraid to say it. Not only does big pharma lose out if people get healthy, so does big grain and big sugar. (Although they could all re invest in regenerative livestock farming instead)
THE explanation is that government must represent the people & they have jobs & income they'd like to keep, and research that would majorly trash the jobs/investments economy is not welcome. A sudden switch of most people to a mostly KETOgenic diet bcz they heard it would help their health best, would RADICALLY alter the economy & farming permanently.
Puzzle solved: a quick Google search reveals that Scott was a vice president at Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield, which is a health insurance company. No surprise that she wouldn't want her previous employer to lose money. It's a clear conflict of interest for her to be in charge of approving research. Psych meds are expensive! I was on one medication that cost $800/month.
Wow!
This rhymes with so many other decisions over the past 40 years. The covid response was particularly corrupt and nonsensical. What I used to believe was ignorance among high standing public health officials I now understand as selfish intent.
I hope the "health" board are happy with making life harder and worse for the patients.
They are. They keep profiting on their useless medications this way
Sounds like you were on to something…and that scares those who have enjoyed immense profits off of human suffering.
Signed the petition 👍
It seems research into natural therapies, spiritual practices, and a diverse range of psycho social therapies for mental and emotional challenges occurs in dribs and drabs over time.
Due to conflict of interest. Lack of funding. Lack of financial incentive. Philosophical differences.
The mental healthcare system is designed for Business first. Health second. It needs to be turned on its head.
We agree! Health should always be the first priority.
I signed the petition but of course it asks for money. Screw that. It’s rather disgusting that every damn time I want to sign a petition for a good cause, it is monetized either by begging for money or selling my information. Stop that shit if you want to really be taken seriously.
Change.org does ask for money, but there is no obligation to donate. Please feel free to sign the petition without a donation.
You are in Maryland. That was your first mistake. But thankfully, everyone who is on keto or carnivore already knows that low carbs or no carbs are essential for good health.
Facts
A pure Carnivore diet has had amazing benefits when it comes to many mental illnesses, especially depression and anxiety. I am eating this way after a lifetime of battling depression and anxiety and have had amazing health benefits. Prescription drugs for over a decade did nothing to help me... the way to go is Carnivore eating... do some research and see what people say.
Should add - if Gates is anywhere near this then he will have influenced it being shut down
very important issue
If you have to ask that question you haven't been paying attention!!
follow the money - who is going to lose and who got paid ??
interfering with $$$, not going to let that happen.
If someone is copper toxic and goes on a ketogenic diet, the diet can help reduce inflammation but the diet can also cause someone to begin to release toxins from fat cells, which can cause worsening of symptoms. The first line of defense is to get unbound copper levels measured through ceruloplasm, serum levels and also HTMA. Then you would want to do a detox of unbound copper and heavy metals and do mineral balancing before doing just straight keto, as fat cells releasing these toxins can skew the results of a keto study.
That’s interesting
I haven’t seen any toxic release but thank you for the heads up. I’ll check it out.
@@BeatrizHatfield-vc4ig
The toxic release doesn’t always show up in big symptoms but in small ways and small amounts until you develop things like MCAS or MS or weight gain despite diet. It took 3 straight years of keto, weight loss and improvement before I found out I had been releasing and redistributing toxins in my body. Now I have quite the mess to untangle. Going slowly with diet change while getting HTMA, mineral balancing and heavy metals removed can be amazing and powerful. Test…don’t guess.
This affects the big pharma and the food i industry.
It’s not about the patient it’s about the money to be made thru control of true healing treatments!
This makes me think that keto is effective at improving the health of people.
Usually this has excellent audio quality but some frustrating changes in volume here. Very loud. Keep up the quality content.
