Fix the Brain, Change the Mind: Root-Cause Psychiatry with Dr. Robert Hedaya

Dr. Mark Hyman interviews Dr. Robert Hedaya, a pioneer in functional psychiatry, about his work using QEEGs and other modalities to improve neuropsychiatric treatment. Dr. Hedaya shares a case where a patient's panic attacks disappeared with B12 injections, highlighting the importance of looking beyond traditional psychiatric approaches. He also discusses using quantitative EEGs to map brain function, correlating patterns with symptoms to target treatments like laser therapy, which enhances mitochondrial function and ATP production. Dr. Hedaya advocates for a holistic approach, emphasizing diet, mental well-being, communication with a higher power, exercise, and relationships as essential for mental health.
