How Nutrition and Deficiencies Impact Brain Function
Your brain can’t thrive on empty.
Every organ in your body requires fuel — and your brain is no exception. In fact, your brain uses more energy than any other part of your body. When it doesn’t get the nutrients it needs, it doesn’t just slow down — it begins to misfire.
Many symptoms that are diagnosed as depression, anxiety, or even ADHD may actually stem from nutritional imbalances, deficiencies, or toxicities (Rao et al., 2008). But these often go overlooked in traditional psychiatry.
At Alleviant, we ask different questions — because we know that brain function and nutrition are deeply connected.
Geriatric Mental Health: Addressing Depression, Anxiety, Loneliness, and Cognitive Decline in Older Adults
Aging is a natural part of life—but the mental health challenges that often accompany aging are not inevitable. Depression, anxiety, loneliness, dementia, and cognitive decline are common struggles among older adults, yet they are frequently overlooked or misdiagnosed.
At Alleviant Integrated Mental Health, we recognize that the brain and body change with age, and mental health care must adapt accordingly. Through Objective Psychiatry, spectral EEG (sEEG) brain mapping, personalized NeuroSync™ plans, and integrative care models, we offer hope, healing, and renewed vitality to seniors facing these challenges.
Migraines and Mental Health: Treating the Root, Not Just the Pain
Migraines aren’t just headaches—they are neurological storms that can disrupt every part of life. Whether you’re sidelined by pain once a month or suffering chronically, the key to lasting relief is to understand what’s actually happening inside the brain.
At Alleviant, we treat migraines not as a surface symptom, but as a signal of deeper dysfunction. Using non-invasive brain mapping and natural therapies, we help restore balance and empower long-term healing.
