Gluten-free diet improved negative symptoms of schizophrenia in small, blinded randomized trial in patients with gluten antibodies (AGA IgG+), which are more common in schizophrenia (35% vs 10%): pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41544406 Replicates earlier trial.









💊⚖️ Psychiatric medications can be life-changing. They can also quietly drive metabolic complications like high blood pressure, weight gain, insulin resistance, and abnormal cholesterol and triglycerides. All of which can reduce the quality of, or even shorten, our patients' lives. Knowing how to detect and treat these complications can be life-saving. That's why we’re excited to share our newest FREE CME course: The Metabolic Consequences of Psychiatric Medications and Options for Management Instructed by Dr. Matthew Bernstein and @ProfDeannaK. 🔗 mycme.com/courses/metabo…

Baszucki Group is proud to announce a partnership with @UMmedschool for an innovative training initiative that will build capacity for delivering ketogenic metabolic therapy in mental health care. Led by @ProfDeannaK, this initiative aims to educate and empower practitioners by guiding them in adopting the intervention themselves. The aim is to prepare a variety of healthcare professionals to safely and confidently incorporate this promising personalized metabolic treatment framework in both clinical and research settings. This program is part of a continued commitment by Baszucki Group to expand access to metabolic therapies for patients with serious mental illness by supporting key research and capacity-building projects. “Our hope is that the information gathered from this model will be used to shape the future development and expansion of similar programs globally,” said Julie Milder, PhD, Director of Neuroscience at Baszucki Group.

Baszucki Group is bringing together clinicians to build a metabolic psychiatry community of practice. Our goal is to connect clinicians, share knowledge, and expand access to ketogenic metabolic therapies for mental health care. By supporting this growing network, we hope to increase the number of clinicians worldwide who are equipped to deliver ketogenic metabolic therapies safely and effectively. If you’re a clinician working in or interested in metabolic psychiatry, we’d love to hear your perspective. 👉 Please take a few minutes to complete our brief survey: bit.ly/4r6b8fI #MetabolicPsychiatry #MentalHealth #KetogenicTherapy
