I’m delighted to have Dr. Roseann Capanna-Hodge back on the show again! She joined me previously on Episode 174. Dr. Roseann is an exceptional pediatric mental health expert who utilizes a combination of traditional and non-traditional modalities for her patient population. She joins me today to discuss the role of Myo-inositol from a mood and mental health perspective.

We talk about the mental health benefits of Myo-inositol and how it impacts mood disorders- specifically eating disorders and binge eating, as well as obsessive-compulsive disorder, stress and anxiety, panic attacks, and depression. We also discuss Dr. Roseann’s unique approaches to calming the autonomic nervous system and reducing brain inflammation, the current medical model and its limitations, and the impact of trauma.
