Introduction: The application of ketogenic dietary interventions to mental health treatments is increasingly acknowledged within medical and psychiatric fields, yet its exploration in clinical psychology remains limited. This article discusses the potential implications of ketogenic diets, traditionally utilized for neurological disorders, within broader mental health practices.
Methods: This article presents a perspective based on existing ketogenic diet research on historical use, biological mechanisms, and therapeutic benefits.
Background: Evidence suggests that a ketogenic diet (KD) may help to alleviate psychiatric symptoms, including depression and anxiety. Positive changes have been reported such as improvements in cognition, concentration, and sleep, a reduction in hunger, and an increase in well-being, energy, confidence, and resilience. This research aims to understand the impact of a non-calorie-restricted KD on depression and aspects of psychological well-being in those with varying degrees of depressive symptoms.

Methods: Two referral centre laboratory databases were searched for angiosarcoma of the ventral abdominal wall.
Article Synopsis
- Consumption of seafood contaminated by phycotoxins from harmful algae, like V. rugosum, poses significant public health risks, with a focus on neurotoxins called pinnatoxins (PnTXs).
- The study developed linear mixed models based on environmental data from four Mediterranean lagoons to predict the presence of V. rugosum and PnTX G contamination in mussels, finding strong correlations with seawater temperature.
- Results indicated that 25% of mussel consumers might exceed safe dietary limits during warmer months, leading to recommendations for ongoing monitoring of these harmful algae and toxins.
Objectives: Data are scarce regarding the prevalence and predictors of perinatal mood and anxiety disorders (PMADs) among Black women. The purpose of this study was to examine the prevalence and predictors of symptoms of PMADS among Black women.
Methods: Black women completed a paper survey between August 2019 and October 2019.
