    The Mental Health Crisis No One’s Talking About with Dr. James Greenblatt, MD

    Subscribe to the video podcast: https://www.youtube.com/@LiveHolPlus/podcasts Mental health is not a simple checklist, it is a whole body story. In this hol+ episode, Dr. Taz sits down with Dr. James Greenblatt, a pioneer of integrative and nutritional psychiatry, to rethink how we approach depression, anxiety, ADHD, and eating disorders through labs, nutrients, hormones, and personalized care. Together, they unpack why so much suffering persists despite more medications, how root cause testing changes outcomes, and why simple shifts like correcting vitamin D, B12, iron, thyroid, zinc, and omega 3 can transform mood and resilience. They also explore nutrigenomics for precision dosing, the real limits of 10 minute telehealth med checks, and where tools like ketamine, psychedelics, and lithium orotate fit only after foundations are in place. From practical lab targets and cost effective protocols to the crossroads of food, sleep, screens, and ADHD, this conversation invites us to see mental health not as a diagnosis to medicate, but as a system to understand and support. Dr. Taz and Dr. Greenblatt discuss: The gap between symptom focused care and root cause testingKey labs for mood, vitamin D, B12, iron, thyroid, hormonesWhy micronutrients come first for eating disordersMTHFR, methylfolate, glutathione, and antidepressant responseNutrigenomics for personalized vitamin and mineral dosingThe risks of quick med stacking and 10 minute checksWhere ketamine, psychedelics, and lithium orotate may help, and when they do notADHD, ultra processed foods, sugary drinks, sleep, and screen timeAbout Dr. James Greenblatt, MDDr. James Greenblatt, MD is a board certified psychiatrist and a pioneer of integrative and nutritional psychiatry.

    Silent Inflammation Epidemic: The Hidden Root of All Disease

    Subscribe to the video podcast: https://www.youtube.com/@DrTazMD/podcasts Silent inflammation is not a buzzword, it is the quiet engine behind fatigue, brain fog, stubborn weight, anxiety, gut issues, and hormone chaos. In this episode, Dr. Taz explains what silent inflammation really is, how the cortisol hum keeps your body on alert, and why modern life, from blue light to isolation, adds fuel to the fire. You will learn how the hypothalamus, pituitary, and pineal act as a control hub, why normal labs can miss the gray zone, and the practical steps that calm your system so real healing can begin. Dr. Taz shares: • Why silent inflammation can start in the prenatal environment and echo through generations • How chronic cortisol activation keeps you inflamed even when labs look normal • The role of the hypothalamus pituitary axis in hormones, mood, and energy • How blue light, toxins, poor sleep, and isolation raise your inflammatory load • Simple daily practices that lower cortisol and reset your nervous system • Why community, nature, and deep sleep are non negotiable for healing • Tools like meditation, sound therapy, and scalp work that help flip the stress switch Whether you feel off but cannot explain why, are chasing a diagnosis, or want a long term plan for energy, focus, and hormone balance, this episode gives you a clear roadmap to reduce inflammation and reclaim your vitality.
