  • Episode 54 | Dr. Kathleen Holton – REVISITING FOOD AS MEDICINE FOR CHRONIC PAIN
    Mar 3 2026

    We'd love to hear from you! Click here.

    Dr. Kathleen Holton is a nutritional neuroscientist and a Provost Associate Professor at American University in Washington, DC. Her research examines the negative effects of dietary excitotoxins on neurological symptoms, as well as the positive protective effects of certain micronutrients on the brain.

    The most common dietary excitotoxin exposures in the US are from food additives. Dr. Holton’s research is exploring the beneficial effects of removing these additives, while optimizing the nutrient composition of the diet to treat neurological conditions characterized by excitotoxicity, oxidative stress, and neuroinflammation.

    Her work aims to optimize the use of food as medicine in neurological treatment.
