In this episode of Healthy Her, host Amelia Phillips welcomes back neuroscientist Dr Sarah McKay to discuss the emerging use of psychedelics in mental health.  

Dr Sarah also gives her perspective on the use of peptides for cognitive health, and whether there are any other supplements we can take or levers we can pull to give our brains a short-term edge. 

About the guest:

Dr Sarah McKay is an Oxford-trained neuroscientist, author, speaker and educator whose work sits at the intersection of neuroscience, women’s brain health and real life. She specialises in translating complex brain research into practical strategies we can use every day for improved health, mood, and performance.
