The root cause of serious mental illnesses, such as Bipolar Disorder and Schizophrenia, may involve dysfunctional insulin and energy metabolism. This emerging theory and body of research has great potential to transform how we diagnose and treat serious mental illnesses.
Virginie-Anne Chouinard, PhD, is a board-certified psychiatrist at McLean Hospital and an instructor in psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. She is a leading expert in metabolic conditions as they relate to psychotic disorders. In this talk, she discusses the importance of insulin and energy metabolism in bipolar disorder and schizophrenia spectrum disorders.
This video was recorded at the first ever Metabolic Psychiatry roadmap retreat, hosted by Baszucki Group and the Milken Institute for Strategic Philanthropy in May, 2022 in Santa Barbara. The conference brought together physicians, neuroscientists, dieticians, entrepreneurs, venture capitalists and philanthropists to build community in the emerging field of Metabolic Psychiatry.
