This week, I had the pleasure of speaking with Natalie West whose focus is on nutrition and its connection to mental health. 

Talking with Natalie dovetailed into so many other podcasts specifically Julia Rucklidge and Dr Pran Yoganathan, also with Prof Pete Smith, Olivia Leslar, and many more.

Unstress Health with Dr Ron Ehrlich

HEALTHY BITE | Mental Health and the Holistic Health Model

This episode explores the growing influence of smartphones, social media algorithms, and artificial intelligence on our mental health and relationships. Psychologist Jocelyn Brewer introduces the concept of Digital Nutrition, encouraging people to become more intentional about their technology use.

Dr Ron Ehrlich and Jocelyn discuss how dopamine-driven design keeps users hooked, why algorithms prioritize attention over wellbeing, and how AI tools are increasingly being used for emotional support.

They also examine risks for young people, including early exposure to social media and online content, and the importance of digital literacy for both parents and children.

The conversation ultimately focuses on practical ways individuals can take control of their digital habits - using tools, boundaries, and awareness to create a healthier relationship with technology.

Digital Nutrition: How to Use Tech Without Letting It Control Your Mind | Jocelyn Brewer

Mental health diagnoses remain largely subjective, often leading to symptom-based pharmaceutical management. In this episode, Dr Will Van Derveer explains how integrative psychiatry expands the lens - exploring nutrition, inflammation, gut health, trauma, mitochondrial function, relationships, circadian rhythms, and lifestyle factors.

The conversation moves into psychedelic-assisted therapy - including MDMA, psilocybin, and ketamine - and how these medicines act as catalysts for deep psychological healing. Unlike conventional approaches, these therapies focus on preparation, integration, and behavioural change.

Dr Van Derveer shares powerful clinical insights from PTSD and depression trials, explains why MDMA may be uniquely effective for trauma, and discusses why integration - not just medication - determines long-term outcomes.

Resolving Trauma & Depression: The Future of Integrative Psychiatry with Dr Will Van Derveer

In this episode of Unstress Health, Dr Ron Ehrlich speaks with former Team USA bobsledder William Person about chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), a condition traditionally diagnosed only after death.

William shares his personal battle with debilitating symptoms that were misdiagnosed for decades - including depression, confusion, memory loss, and suicidal ideation -  and reveals how hyperbaric oxygen therapy changed his life.

The discussion expands beyond elite sport to include:
Military veterans
Domestic violence survivors
Car accident victims
Prison populations
Misdiagnosed psychiatric patients

This episode explores the uncomfortable possibility that many cases labeled as mental illness may instead be untreated brain trauma.

 

◉ 𝐀𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐆𝐮𝐞𝐬𝐭:   

William Person is a former nine-year Team USA bobsled athlete who competed in World Championships, Olympic trials and World Cup events.

After experiencing severe neurological symptoms from repeated high G-force exposure, he became an advocate for CTE awareness and brain injury recovery.

He now works with veteran agencies across the United States and supports legislation to provide hyperbaric oxygen therapy to those suffering from untreated brain trauma.
