I am a healthy young man but I have cognitive problems due to Neurofibromatios Type 1. I have been keto for about a year now and have seen big improvements to my energy levels and cognitive function.
Keto cured my Mild Cognitive Impairment that I suffered for almost 5 years after 2 concussions. After 3 years on Keto, I have reversed my MCI and I'm in my early 40's and my mind is sharp as a tack. A lot of people my age are forgetting things and misplacing objects, and I'm as keen as I was when I was a teenager. So KETO WORKS!!!
@공부연구ASMRvlog yes. Now it's been 4 years. I have no choice because as soon as I tried to switch over to a 'regular' diet with whole grains, starches and fruits, my memory started to slip again and the brain fog and headaches all came back. It was like reliving a nightmare. I have no issues staying on a LCHF way of eating for the rest of my life.
@@nikkibenk I’m happy for you, and that’s great to hear. I love this fantastic and energy I have now with the keto. Boy how those carbs were keeping me down and unfocused. I’m in school working on my doctorate and I have all the focus and energy. Thanks Keto 💪🏾
Absolutely agree! The science is much more straight-forward than mainstream clinicians would have u believe. Ketosis does more than just switch metabolic algorithms; it also has autophagic and epigenetic properties that restores system-wide vitality, including cognitive performance and immunologic vigilance.
you need to look into how a low-carb diet reduces the amount of glutamate produced by the brain and how high fats increase the amount of gaba by increasing cellular permeability of the blood-brain barrier. Once you understand this mechanism, you'll understand why a ketogenic diet can lead to more mental clarity
Slightly odd finish to this piece. After nine tenths of the video gives intriguing evidence that a ketogenic diet may well have positive effects on brain health, the speaker concludes that somehow a 'diet rich in diverse fruit and vegetables' is the best bet for such an affect. The first question would be: where is the evidence for that? The second question: why, after clearly demonstrating at least the possibility that a ketogenic diet is effective in this area, does the speaker then just fall back to the tired old high carb model?
Yea they always just throw in the end that a “balanced” diet is best just cuz that’s recommended by the fda, despite the fact that all the evidence points to a low carb diet being the best
keto is super sustainable, its ridiculous to claim its not sustainable and its a "fad"....your body has been making ketones since birth, grains are the fad
"an intense and widely shared enthusiasm for something, especially one that is short-lived; a craze." That's one definition of fad. So if you throw out the negative connotation (short-lived, craze) then yeah keto is a fad. There's some good and bad information about this diet, it apperently really helps people with mental clarity and especially hunger issues and sugar addiction (these are annecdotes but honestly if you try to connect it with the science it does match) so i'd say it's worth experimenting with. Although a "keto" diet i'd say is just keeping carbs low so approx 50g your fats and proteins don't matter much since if you're doing 2mad you'll still be in ketosis. Also at the end you can see her bias is very clear since she rounds it up with imidiatly calling it a "fad" (she's saiyng it like it harms you or something lmao) and then goes on to say that a diet high in veggies, fatty fish and low in saturated fat helps you with mental clarity wich is very different from a keto diet and that's just bs. Maybe it's different from many people's way of implementing a keto diet but on a keto diet you can still avoid saturated fat by not using coconut oil, palm oil and butter/ghee and opting for lean meats and olive oil instead, and keto diets are usally high in veggies anyway so honestly you can do both.
I have just been watching a huge amount of videos about the doctors studying a keto diet concerning healthy people. What could you be talking about? They are also trying coconut oil and MCTs on people. Great results.
Thank you! The book of Genesis informs us that God created the world and human beings in His image. He also created animals and plants. He also taught them how to garden, what to eat and not eat and how to prepare. He is a wonderful heavenly father. I encourage all to read the bible to get to know Him. Thank you Dr Laura for your bible verse reference.
Butter has short-chained fatty acids. MCT oil is not the only keto oil. Coconut oil, pure avocado oils, olive oils, and all animal fats are keto fats/oils. MCT can be used by non-keto people in any quantity they can digest. The other oils would be minimized for the non-keto people. Keto is already used for those with dementia or Alzheimers. But you can do exogenous ketones if the individual does not believe the diet would help.
Atm, I'm kinda doing the keto diet. I'm having around 70% fat, 20% protein, and 10% carbs. I'm still eating fruits, primarily strawberries, and many vegetables, such as broccoli, spinach etc. Should I continue this diet in the long term?
You're in luck, last October I did a video on the science underlying claims about collagen supplements for skin, joint and gut health! ruclips.net/video/ZhImCihUSik/видео.html
I have the apoe3 gene. I wonder if apoe3 works similar or respond similarly to apoe4. I also happen to chronic nerve pain and neuralgia. Tried going Keto but didn’t survive more than a week because of the shakes
Just like your arm, you have to work it out In Order to lift heavier weights, so if you’ve never done keto, your liver will have a tough time trying to create a lot of ketones, you have to practice going in and out of keto, also don’t forget electrolytes and vitamins you’re deficient in!
Thanks for doing this video. Perfect timing, I was just researching this information and was questioning it all. Thank you for clarifying with this well rounded information.
Lovely video. However, Raphael’s Transfiguration of Christ certainly does not represent prayer and fasting curing seizures! (Not that prayer and fasting cannot cure seizures, but that’s not what is pictured.) How silly.
My first thought was why have you made this video. Switching to a keto diet is not going to harm anyone so why not try it? I sense pharma funding. It appears you are advocating a wait and see approach i.e. a new drug therapy.
Down the line, being 'fully fat adapted' you can get to a state called 'metabolic resilient' where both things/pathways are possible. But TOO many CARBOHYDRATESeaten too frequently will likely push you away from internal keto-capacity again. Or so they fear.
VERY GOOD STUFF. I'm having ADD, so enhanced mental clarity would be just sweet for me. But I guess I'll just have to wait and see. Wonderful that you tackle the wild health claims. Any chance of an update? Have new thing come to light? What is being examined properly? When might we expect to know more? Please keep us, blithering ignorant, updated. It would appear that we are dependent on your good work to know what we can trust (in).
That is what bad science tastes like, read "The Big Fat Surprise: Why Butter, Meat and Cheese Belong in a Healthy Diet' Book by Nina Teicholz, which came out in 2014. That book will change your perspective on the history of nutritional science, makesone wonder how man people died needlessly from bad advise give with the best intentions because theythought that the science had been done. It's a shame your video had me excited until the end of this with your horribly unscientific blanket recommendations to the audience.

That’s great! I’ve noticed I’m now having some word finding difficulties. And the ST memory. This should be more than enough for me to get on Keto/IF.

@공부연구ASMRvlog if keto heals then keep doing it
Because the mainstream wants to keep the old food pyramid in place. FDA doesn’t admit wrong.

Any study on effect of keto to kids and students on learning, memory and intelligence?
You have a very scientific approach. Thank you for that.

I don’t think that you are on ketosis with this diet.
@@HostileSnow fair enough. Should I try and maybe up more protein and veggies then?
@@imazegd3006 You have to consume under 20g of net carbs.
Just eat nothing but a heaping bowl of sugar
@@andrecontreras4679 Thanks Andre.
Very interesting!
Good video. Thank you for the information ;)
keto Without any solution and side effects for Alzheimers, Keto is a good therapy instead of doing nothing
I am patient of brain.Your diet video helped me a lot
Please do a similar deep dive video on collagen supplements. The science and which is best for anti aging skin

Agree with below. If you went to zero carbs instantly, that can give you the shakes easily.
Your shakes could be because of sugar withdrawal symptoms.

Great mam
creatne supplement has powerful brain benefits
Just eat meat perfect diet for all humans
So much more scientific evidence than what is provided here for benefits of a keto diet. Disappointing video.
Lovely video. However, Raphael’s Transfiguration of Christ certainly does not represent prayer and fasting curing seizures! (Not that prayer and fasting cannot cure seizures, but that’s not what is pictured.) How silly.
