Researcher with Bipolar Shatters Stigma

If you or a loved one lives with bipolar disorder, this podcast is one you don’t want to miss. Dr. Iain Campbell is a shining example of what “success” looks like in treating serious mental illness. For years, Dr. Campbell took medications to minimize his most serious symptoms of Bipolar Disorder but never felt well. Then, by chance, he tried a  ketogenic diet, which, as he describes it, “turned the lights back on” and radically changed his life. Since then, he became a researcher in metabolic psychiatry, a husband, a father, and a consistent role model for those with bipolar disorder. Dr. Campbell has a Ph.D. in global health from the University of Edinburgh and is a researcher at the University of Edinburgh. He is the co-principal investigator of the first European trial of a ketogenic diet for Bipolar Disorder and is the recipient of the inaugural Baszucki Brain Research Fund Metabolic Psychiatry Research Fellowship.  He co-hosts the Bipolarcast podcast and frequently speaks about his experience with bipolar. His openness is helping transform the way we publicly talk and think about bipolar disorder. Dr. Campbell has a rare combination of personal knowledge and experience combined with a deep scientific understanding that will help revolutionize the treatment of Bipolar disorder.
