So Why Are We Ignoring It?]]></title><description><![CDATA[There's a question that doesn't get asked often enough in mental health conversations: what is the brain actually running on? We talk about neurotransmitters constantly,  serotonin, dopamine, norepinephrine. These are the chemical messengers that carry signals between neurons, and they're the primary target of most psychiatric medications. That framing has dominated mental health treatment for decades. But there's another layer underneath the neurotransmitter story that most people never hear...]]></description><link>https://www.metabolicmindproject.com/post/your-brain-runs-on-energy-so-why-are-we-ignoring-it</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69d2c99584368b484103a0f3</guid><pubDate>Sun, 05 Apr 2026 21:09:03 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/08bf91_e73e4659d05c4b84aca200bc82836d3d~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_784,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Metabolic Mind Project</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Two Epidemics, One Root Cause. Are We Just Beginning to See the Connection?]]></title><description><![CDATA[The United States is currently managing two public health crises that have been building in parallel for decades. One is metabolic. The other is psychiatric. Neither shows signs of reversing. And for the most part, medicine has treated them as separate problems with separate solutions. They are not separate. The evidence linking metabolic dysfunction to psychiatric illness has been accumulating for years, but it has not yet crossed over into the mainstream conversation about mental health....]]></description><link>https://www.metabolicmindproject.com/post/two-epidemics-one-root-cause-are-we-just-beginning-to-see-the-connection</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69da5c888614fb4128ae2fa5</guid><pubDate>Sat, 11 Apr 2026 14:51:47 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/11062b_4ded471c15b34abbb532b0ee4f60e4b3~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Metabolic Mind Project</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Longevity Generation Wants More Than a Long Life. They Want a Clear Mind. ]]></title><description><![CDATA[Something is shifting in how people think about health, and it is moving faster than most clinicians and researchers have caught up to. A few years ago, the longevity movement was a niche pursuit, associated with wealthy tech founders tracking their biological age and experimenting with obscure supplements. Today it has migrated into the mainstream. People of all ages are wearing devices that monitor their sleep architecture, heart rate variability, and recovery status. They are talking about...]]></description><link>https://www.metabolicmindproject.com/post/the-longevity-generation-wants-more-than-a-long-life-they-want-a-clear-mind</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69d81556a51db32c14c39919</guid><pubDate>Thu, 09 Apr 2026 21:17:50 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/11062b_501f5c510fd44fa891c4da58e7ed8206~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Metabolic Mind Project</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Movement Is Medicine. But Not for the Reasons You Think.]]></title><description><![CDATA[We have known for a long time that exercise is good for mental health. The evidence on this is not new or contested. Study after study, across decades of research, points to the same conclusion: people who move regularly feel better, think more clearly, and show lower rates of depression and anxiety than people who do not. What has been less understood, until relatively recently, is why. The standard explanation has leaned heavily on endorphins, that familiar post-workout mood lift that feels...]]></description><link>https://www.metabolicmindproject.com/post/movement-is-medicine-but-not-for-the-reasons-you-think</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69d2e793c53e2b8fe1227cd2</guid><pubDate>Sun, 05 Apr 2026 23:02:19 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/00e27c3e0f92494189e85c7b1cedb791.jpg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Metabolic Mind Project</dc:creator></item></channel></rss>
