YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Chris Masterjohn breaks down one of the most explosive claims in this episode: SSRIs and benzodiazepines are mitochondrial drugs in ways that no one prescribing them understands. The trials used to approve them are 12 weeks long. The average person takes them for five years. He explains what actually happens to your mitochondria on these drugs, why coming off them causes catastrophic dysfunction for some people, and why the scientific understanding of serotonin that these drugs are based on is essentially a marketing story invented in the 1980s.
