“Nutritional ketosis, achieved by following a high fat, low carbohydrate diet, has therapeutic effects for a broad range of neurological disorders, particularly seizures. To aid with his research in this area, Dr. D'Agostino is developing ketone supplements – ketone esters and ketone mineral salts.”

Dr. Rhonda Patrick answers audience questions on various health, nutrition, and science topics in this Q&A session.

“The body perceives these interventions as stressors and then adapts, ultimately developing metabolic flexibility. Dr. D'Agostino proposes that metabolic interventions, such as restricting calories and entering ketosis, for example, may provide additional benefits when practiced cyclically.”

“Researchers have determined that beta-hydroxybutyrate is an endogenous regulator of HDACs and is able to regulate age-related genes such as FOXO3. In this clip, Dr. Eric Verdin discusses the role of beta-hydroxybutyrate in protecting against oxidative stress, both as a nutrient, but also as a transcription regulator.”

“However, the term "fasting" can comprise a variety of subtypes. Intermittent fasting, a term lacking specificity, usually refers to interventions such as alternate-day fasting, fasting one day per week, or a five:two eating pattern (fasting for two days per week).”

“Researchers in Dr. D'Agostino's laboratory observed a decreased tumor burden and enhanced survival in animals that were provided a ketone supplement, even if they were fed a high-carbohydrate diet.”

“The arrival of a new year is a great opportunity to make health-focused resolutions – promises to ourselves that we're going to live better, healthier, and (hopefully) longer. We all age at different rates, however, so our chronological age – the number of years we've lived – often differs from our biological age.”

“Consensus evidence supports ApoB as a causal risk factor, but Dr. Attia’s proposed 10–30 mg/dL physiological range and treatment targets are attributed opinions, not universal guideline targets. Diet can change ApoB through several pathways.”
