Metabolic Psychiatry: Emerging Science and Equity Implications

Free Registration available for 1 CME

The session will critically examine the current evidence supporting metabolic-targeted interventions, including insulin-sensitizing agents, anti-inflammatory approaches, nutritional psychiatry, and mitochondrial modulation strategies. Clinical implications for psychiatric practice will be explored, including metabolic screening, collaboration with primary care and endocrinology, and identification of patient populations most likely to benefit from metabolic interventions. Participants will gain a practical framework for incorporating metabolic considerations into psychiatric assessment and treatment planning while maintaining evidence-based caution regarding emerging therapies.
