So the rate starts going down. But with antidepressants, It's almost linear. The older you are, the more likely you are to be receiving a prescription for an antidepressant. Antipsychotics, there are some waves and shifts. Women, for example, around the time of menopause, get a peak. So you get a peak around the age of 20, which is new onset schizophrenia. And then it kind of comes down a little.

And then women, around the time of menopause, higher peak. And then it kind of comes down a little. And then late in life, it goes through the roof. Goes through the roof. Again, because of what we call dementia. So the diseases of aging, anyway, are all of the metabolic disorders and, oh, by the way, the mental disorders. And in my mind, we need to tie that together.

That is not a serotonin problem. We need to tie that science together. And the only way to tie that science together is to look at the bigger picture that we call metabolism. And ultimately, you have to look at mitochondria and mitochondrial biology to understand it.

I'll throw in a plug before I go deep into the ketogenic diet story. But you also threw a question in there about other dietary interventions or how can diet impact. There is no question diet plays a profound, profound and central role to human metabolism and all of the consequences of human metabolism. And you very eloquently laid out the case for early life.

A woman who's breastfeeding her infant, that breast milk has a profound impact on whether that baby's brain develops normally or not. That has dire consequences potentially for the outcome and the health of that child. And it's all about nutrition. We've known that for decades, that if women are malnourished during pregnancy, it impacts that infant's, the fetus's lifespan, really.

It increases risk for mental disorders and metabolic disorders. Increases risk if your mother is starving. while she's pregnant or has to fast or has to go without nutrients, it increases that child's risk for metabolic disorders, obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease. We've known that. And that is, you know, there are lots of theories about obesity around that. It also...

Surprisingly, increases risk for schizophrenia and bipolar disorder and antisocial personality disorder and all sorts of other mental disorders. In terms of other dietary patterns, I just want to, and we can do a deep dive into any of these if you want, and then I'll go on to ketogenic diets, but ultra processed foods. really bad for your physical health and your mental health.

We have just growing body of evidence for that.
