2770: Do Low Carb Diets Lead to Depressi...

Dr. Stephen Cabral
About this episode

There are pros and cons to everything.

 

When it comes to a low-carb diet, many individuals may choose it to enhance weight loss, digestion, skin health, and mental clarity.

 

However, in clinical practice, we have observed how low-carb diets can impact hormone levels, affect thyroid function, and decrease neurotransmitter production.

 

Join me in today's episode of #CabralConcept 2770, where I discuss how long-term low-carb diets can lead to depression and what you can do instead. Enjoy the show, and let me know what you thought!
