#52 Lowan H Stewart: Psychedelics, A Game Changer In Mental Health
Manage episode 293709595 series 2811394
In one of my favorite conversations so far on the podcast, I was honored to have Dr. Lowan H Stewart visiting the studio talking about the psychedelic revolution happening in the world right now. Mental health is a growing worldwide issue, and Lowan reflects on why this is happening - and how psychedelics can help. These "drugs" have had a rumor of being dangerous and illegal but now psychedelics are rediscovered by the medical, scientific, and psychiatric research communities and this reveals their capacity to help patients with a range of different mental issues.
We also talk about Lowans journey from Emergency Medicine to creating ketamine clinics in the US and Norway - and helping thousands of people during the last years.
