Walsh Biotypes of Depression With a Focus on Undermethylation

I recently had the pleasure of being on the Nourished By Nature: Mind Body Wellness Podcast with Annika Taylor, a holistic health practitioner. After sharing with Annika how I became a holistic psychiatrist and how I define holistic psychiatry, we discuss:* The Walsh Research Institute’s data on nutrient levels of 30,000 people with brain-related symptoms, and what were found to be the most common imbalances (One or more of these imbalances is present in about 90-95% of the patient's that I evaluate for brain-related symptoms).* The Walsh biotypes of depression. How I test for the copper-zinc imbalances, pyrrole disorder, and methylation imbalances.* High copper and its relationship to ADHD, anxiety, depression and post-partum. depression, anxiety and psychosis.* Pyrrole disorder - symptoms, traits and treatment.* How methylation impacts brain health.* Under and over-methylation symptoms and traits.* Treatment of under-methylation.* How this understanding can remove the stigma associated with mental health conditions, and provide healing and hope.In recent years, Dr. Walsh discovered that undermethylation is increasing in the population while overmethylation is decreasing.If you’d like to add to the discussion, I always appreciate your questions and comments.Have a great week,CourtneyRelated Resources:Annika Taylor - nourishedbynature.comWalsh Research InstituteFor links to specific topics address see links in the description above.
