29: Diet and Adulthood Psychiatric Disorders with Ann Childers, M.D.




The Carbohydrates Can Kill Podcast Feed show

Summary: Dr. Ann Childers is a psychiatrist specializing in an integrated approach to psychiatric care, weight control, and metabolic management. She is our guest on today’s episode of The Carbohydrates Can Kill Podcast. On May 28, 2010, an article published in the Psych Central News reports that Aspirin helps patients with schizophrenia ease up their symptoms. I have read a few articles that indicate the risks of suffering from psychotic disorders during the later years of life are greater for those who have diabetes mellitus in their childhood or young adulthood. I understand and am convinced the grave impacts of hyperglycemia and its subsequent inflammation are related to mental disease. The above news really boosted my confidence that hyperglycemia and inflammation play a big role in everyone’s health, both physical and mental. With my hunger for learning more about diet and mental health, and sharing the information, I want to invite many more psychiatrists to participate in this podcast. Dr. Childers, with a broad experience in both her premedical and postgraduate career, is a unique psychiatrist who observes everything carefully and looks for the link between a cause and its outcome. I am sure that you will be excited to hear the conversation between Dr Childers and I. This is another informative podcast that you do not want to miss.
