Are your mental health pills making you feel bad?
In this episode of The Evolving Wellness podcast, I am joined by Dr. Rachel Brown and Dr. Sara Pugh to discuss the impact of mental health medications on the body. We live in a world where these types of medications, such as SSRIs, are over-prescribed, and thus too many people experience negative side effects. Oftentimes, these pills are prescribed before a patient is recommended to fix basic pillars of health, such as diet, sleep, and exercise. We explore a few things one can do to improve their mental health naturally and easily before one resort to prescription drugs.
We also chat about the dangers of over-supplementing melatonin. When we ingest too much of it, these supplements don’t act as supplements anymore but as contraceptives as they start to repress our bodies' natural ability to create melatonin itself. This can cause a lot of damage to our overall health.
Dr. Sara Pugh has a degree in Biochemistry Genetics and a Welcome Trust Ph.D. in Molecular Mechanisms. She studied protein folding, which plays a role in Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease, antioxidants, and fluorescence. She worked as a postdoctoral researcher on heart muscle cells, cholesterol, and statins. She is published in various peer-reviewed journals.
Dr. Rachel Brown works as an NHS Consultant Psychiatrist in Scotland. She qualified in medicine from the University of Edinburgh in 2003 and has worked in psychiatry since 2004. She has a Master's degree in Medical Laws and Ethics from the University of Edinburgh, in addition to being a certified Functional Medicine Practitioner.
