One thing I hardly ever do is discuss what most people would consider real "Evolutionary Psychiatry." That is, how do diseases such as schizophrenia or autism, which in their worst forms are obviously so detrimental to evolutionary fitness that they would seem to represent a genetic dead end, continue in the gene pool. It doesn't make much sense at first glance. However, one...

Just to assuage any doubts, I don't ascribe to the humoral theory of disease. (I believe in inflammation - everyone should know that!). However, there is still much to learn from ancient Western medicine. I think there is an idea that Western medicine is all leeches and lipitor, but in fact there is a long and noble history of careful...

I know I've left a few threads hanging. I will get back to fat loss and cognition and that diet and dementia paper. In the mean time there are distractions, and I've been diving more deeply into Stanley Jackson's amazing work, Melancholia and Depression: From Hippocratic Times to Modern Times. I think history is important. Maybe...

Alrighty. You might have noticed I've slowed down on the blogging a tad this month. Well, there's sunshine and vitamin D to collect, and lots of social engagements (here in the Northeast U.S. we seem to do everything for the whole year in the summer). Also, ever since I started doing crossfit, I have needed more time to admire myself in the mirror (see Melissa's comment). Today's...

Tomorrow, June 13th, will be my one-year blogiversary. And what an exciting year it has been - especially becoming connected with the paleo blogging community. I credit the tried and true long-timers for helping my little niche nutrition and psychiatry blog become successful (and am humbled that such terrific minds could consider my blog worthy) - Stephan Guyenet is consistently my biggest...

Perhaps a month ago, Zooko tweeted me some papers - one of which I had seen before. Both papers were done on the same group of obese dieters (half eating low carb and half eating an isocaloric low fat diet) for 52 weeks. Zooko presented a puzzle and links to the free full text - notice anything about the data?Paper Number 1 (I'm adjusting...

It's a lovely Sunday here and I'm actually beginning to sport a bit of a tan (remarkably enough) - we're inside for lunch and naps (the kids, sadly, not mine) and I thought I would take a moment to link to my brand new exclusive Psychology Today article, Brain Food, which tells you what I ate for two meals, and also where I get my vegetables. Here's today's menu:Breakfast: Farmer's market bacon,...

First off I wanted to link to my latest podcast; this one is with Michael Ostrolenk at the Voices For Hope Podcast. I had a great time talking to Michael, and we managed to squeeze a lot of me talking in the lean 17 minute interview. It's funny - since in my line of work I typically do a lot of the listening, sometimes when people ask me...

A paper by MIT's own engineer Stephanie Seneff and (as near as I can tell) a couple of medical research-reading renegades was published in the European Journal of Internal Medicine earlier this year. It is remarkable to see (one presumes) a major European biomedical journal publish something from outsiders. More amazing still is the easily...
