“Evidence suggests that a low carbohydrate diet inhibits AGE formation. The ketogenic diet typically restricts carbohydrate intake to roughly 10 percent or less of one's calories. Learn more about the ketogenic diet and its health effects in this episode featuring Dr. Dominic D'Agostino.”

“One potential caveat is the meal was composed of refined carbohydrates and sugars (ie. cornflakes, bread with jam). It would be interesting to see if the same results hold true for either a high-fat meal or a meal rich in fiber (ie.”

“Participants followed a weekly dietary protocol consisting of five days of a ketogenic diet (consuming 20 grams or less of carbohydrates per day) and two non-consecutive days of fasting (consuming less than 20 percent of their estimated caloric needs).”

“In order for pathogenic bacteria to cause infection, they must first target and bind to specific carbohydrates found on the cells that line the gut. However, the overall structure and shape of HMOs mimics that of the carbohydrate targets.”

“We also know that lack of fermentable fiber starves the gut microbiome and causes the bacteria to eat the gut barrier which is made of carbohydrates and this results in the breakdown of the barrier and inflammation.”

“Beneficial effects were noted with the Nordic, portfolio, and low-salt diets, as well. The evidence supporting the blood pressure-lowering effects of the Mediterranean, vegetarian, Paleolithic, low-carbohydrate, low glycemic index, high-protein, and low-fat diets was inconsistent.”

“other factors including total carbohydrate intake, glycemic index, glycemic load, and sugar intake. Successful aging was defined as including an absence of disability, depressive symptoms, cognitive impairment, respiratory symptoms, and chronic diseases including cancer, coronary artery disease, and stroke.”

“A diet consisting more than 60% of energy from carbohydrates (including refined) was related to higher mortality, although not with the risk of cardiovascular disease.”

“From the article: > BHB is a metabolite produced by the body in response to fasting, high-intensity exercise, caloric restriction, or consumption of the low-carbohydrate ketogenic diet.”

“Interestingly, anti-aging drugs diminished the effects of diet. For example, metformin and rapamycin impaired mitochondrial responses to protein, and resveratrol decreased the response to fats and carbohydrates.”
