    Mar 11 2025

    The brain undergoes a major change during weight loss. The result often is a much happier person with less depression. But the reason why this is happening goes far beyond just enjoying a smaller waist and what you see in the mirror.

    There are substantial chemical changes occurring in the brain that alleviate depression, improve mood, and bolster mental health.

    Dr. Hana Kahleova explores the science behind the brain boosting benefits of weight loss when she joins Chuck Carroll on The Exam Room Podcast.

    — In This Interview —

    - Bi-directional relationship between obesity and depression.

    - High-carb diets more beneficial than keto diets for mental health.

    - Fat quality, carbohydrates, fiber, and flavonoids are important.
