On April 9 at 4pm, join us for our upcoming NAMI Ask the Expert webinar. Want to learn more about the cutting-edge science of metabolic psychiatry? This webinar will explore metabolic therapies for psychiatric conditions from both a clinical and lived experience perspective.

Dr. Calogero (Carlo) Longhitano, psychiatrist and Associate Professor of Psychiatry at James Cook University (JCU), will share his insights on the potential of ketogenic therapy as both a clinician and researcher. He is co-investigator of JCU’s randomized controlled trial comparing a ketogenic diet with a standard diet in adults with bipolar disorder and schizophrenia.

Hannah Warren will share her experience of putting symptoms of bipolar I disorder into remission using metabolic therapies, including a ketogenic diet. She will also discuss testimonials from additional individuals with a wide variety of diagnoses.

Support does not always come with immediate solutions. Sometimes it comes through listening, shared experience, or learning new ways to cope and move forward.

Asking for help can bring clarity, ease stress, and make challenges feel more manageable. It can help people feel steadier as they navigate change and remind them that support is part of everyday life.
