Dr. Robert Lustig states that poor psychiatric health—including significant depression and schizophrenia—is associated with persistently low omega-3 levels.

Lustig raises mechanistic questions about whether ketones, fat type, carbohydrate elimination, or specifically sugar reduction drive observed benefits.
