When Science Finds a Way · Does the food we eat improve our mental health? · 6 May 2026 podcast

Nutritional psychiatry is still an emerging field.

Ian Campbell told us about plans to expand his team's pilot study into a large-scale randomized control trial, comparing the ketogenic diet with the Eat Well diet recommended by the National Health Service in the UK, and looking at the effect on bipolar symptoms.

and spoke about integrating the experience of patient communities who have already experimented with different diets to help ease their symptoms.

When you think about your field, nutritional psychiatry, where do you see it going in the next five years and perhaps 10 years?

Wolf, it has been an absolute pleasure talking with you today.

Thank you so much for joining me.

Most of us have been bombarded for years with information about what we should and shouldn't eat.

And not all of that information is true or useful.

Nutritional psychiatry is different, a scientific, evidence-backed approach looking at how the food we eat could have an impact on the symptoms of mental health conditions.

Wolf was keen to emphasize that restrictive diets aren't for everyone and that there are more questions to answer and further research is needed.

But there's room for optimism here with the usual disclaimers that under medical guidance and in combination with other treatments, diet could be another effective tool for mental health.

When Science Finds a Way · Why was a life saving drug overlooked for half a century? · 29 Apr 2026 podcast

Discovery doesn't always happen in a straight line.

Sometimes it's a longer path, shaped by who gets listened to and who doesn't.

Tranexamic acid, or TXA, is one of those stories.
