Sometimes treating the mind means treating the metabolism too.
As a psychiatrist, I chose to go deeper—because true healing is connected. ✨

Today I’m answering one of the most common questions I get:
What else can be done for anxiety besides medication?

I answer this question as—
with all my training, years of presentations, and treating complex mental illnesses for over two decades,
I see the treatment of anxiety (and mental health conditions) evolving with the addition of metabolic therapies.

Sometimes, even psychiatrists could feel anxious before they begin 🤗
It’s not a flaw—it’s human- find how to overcome it??

✨ Metabolic therapies matter:
nutrition literacy, physical activity, and lifestyle changes can significantly improve anxiety.

Let’s also continue to overcome the stigma around mental illness—
healing is more than just medication🍀
Happy Doctor’s Day

As a metabolic psychiatrist, I rarely come across books that truly reflect what we see in real clinical practice—
📘 Weightless is one of them.

Brilliantly written by Rocio Salas-Whalen, it captures the complexity of weight, hormones, and metabolism in a way that is both scientific and practical.

Highly recommended for both patients and clinicians.

Tip 1)
Your hormones need stable blood sugar.

Add:
• Eggs
• Greek yogurt
• Nuts
• Beans

This helps reduce cravings and energy crashes during the fast.

Tip 2)
Hormonal shifts make women more sensitive to dehydration.

Between Iftar and Suhoor:
✔ drink water regularly
✔ limit caffeine
✔ avoid sugary drinks

Tip 3)
Late nights + fasting can worsen:
• Anxiety
• Food cravings
• Hormonal stress

Even 6–7 hours of sleep can help stabilize mood and metabolism.

Yes, AI helped create this portrait 🙂
But what I’m sharing here is a very real and often overlooked truth🍀
If you’re over 40 and gradually start noticing feeling more anxious or restless…
Even though life is going well —
promotion achieved, kids thriving, goals accomplished —
Pause.
It may not be “just anxiety.”
It may be metabolic health shifting alongside perimenopause.
High-achieving women often ignore this phase because “this isn’t me.”
But midlife anxiety can have a hormonal and metabolic layer. Find out if you have metabolic stress or Metabolic dysregulation.
Ask me how we treat anxiety differently in metabolic Psychiatry clinic🍀
👉 Comment “METABOLIC” and I’ll send more information.

Historic day for Menopause care!
FDA is removing 3 major “black box” warnings from HRT 👏

This means:
• more access
• less fear + confusion
• more individualized care for menopause symptoms

If you’ve been struggling with hot flashes, sleep disruption, low libido, weight gain, vaginal dryness — and avoided HRT because of the scary warnings — this is the moment to revisit your options.

DM to learn if you’re a candidate for evidence-based, safer, affordable menopause care ✔️
