Oxford’s Keto for ADHD & Depression Randomized Controlled Trial - with Ally Houston
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 июн 2024
- A new randomized controlled trial (RCT) at University of Oxford will examine the ketogenic diet for ADHD and depression. Ally Houston, who began treating his ADHD, seasonal depression, and chronic anxiety with ketogenic therapy in 2016, is spearheading the trial. Within weeks of starting the medical keto diet, Ally’s life completely transformed. He ultimately reversed his conditions, which inspired him to leave a career in physics to help others with metabolic interventions. He co-founded MetPsy, an app and coaching platform that supports individuals implementing ketogenic therapies for mental illness. Ally is currently conducting a crowdfunding campaign to support the study, and Baszucki Group is matching every donation dollar for dollar.
In this interview with Dr. Bret Scher, Ally shares his perspective that rigorous scientific research gives patients evidence that medical keto is a legitimate treatment option, perhaps helping them garner more support from their community when implementing ketogenic therapy. The 16-week study at Oxford will test a ketogenic diet against a control diet rich in whole grains, fruits, and vegetables that follows the NHS Eat Well Guide.

'Glad to see that more people are getting on board. Applying the truth that there is a positive link between the ketogenic therapy and ADHD or depression can literally save hundreds of thousands of lives. These are exciting contributions to the world's mental health epidemic.
I follow a low carb whole foods clean keto diet. Been doing this diet for over 15 years and have perfect health and look much younger than my age. Mostly eating white meat like boneless skinless chicken breast, and non starchy vegetables and leafy greens. I cook in extra virgin olive oil. What a lot of people don't understand is the body can heal itself not because your eating meat per say but because your body is not running on glucose aka blood sugar. The lack of blood sugar puts your body in ketosis the way our body is meant to operate. Glucose is actually the alternative energy source and Ketone bodies is the primary energy source we have things upside down 🙃. The body won't have to release insulin and your mitochondria functions optimally and your body creates new healthy cells which can do a lot of internal repair including proper brain function.
I’ve done low/carb, keto off-and-on for decades, but experienced the best impact of diet on the brain when adding lots of fatty fish. I was previously taking supplements for omega 3, but dont think they did much for my brain. Eating fish daily for three weeks and i felt a huge difference, and saw minor skin issues go away, and saw nasal congestion clear up. I think of myself as being on an anti-inflammatory diet, and a keto diet happens to be more anti-inflammatory.
Donated to their GoFundMe today! I wish Ally and his team the best!
Thanks for this Bret. Exciting progress currently happening.
You guys should interview Dr. Elena Gross about migraine and metabolism and keto. Her story is amazing and migraine definitely belongs in the bucket of metabolic disorders keto can help with!
We are investors in Keto Swiss. Great idea! A depression trial is underway there as well.
She rocks
@@jan_ellison_baszuckiwhat is keto swiss?
And Angela Stanton and her lifelong research on migraines. She also prescribes keto and salt.
Here's their website www.keto.swiss/
What about Tourette's and OCD? Is anybody studying those? I have ADHA and Tourette's and my son has all three. I'd love to hear a testimony of someone who has used the ketogenic diet to treat either of those.
What is the ADHD study in Holland he's talking about?
Maybe contact him, he seems approachable
This is the study in Holland that Ally mentions in the video: www.steunleiden.nl/project/onderzoek-is-een-ketogeen-dieet-goed-voor-je-hersenen?locale=en
Hello, i have bipolar disorder and my biggest problem is hypersexuality most doctors told me this hypersexuality caused by bipolar so am looking help how can i stop this shameful issue please.
Does anyone know a website that shows visually how much carbs you can have? I'm struggling to get started, grams don't mean much to me and I don't have scales (travelling). Thank you.
Heres a guide that may help www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb/20-50-how-much.
if in doubt, aim for 0 carbs.
@@mbrochh82carnivore?
@@silencenhikes6692 yea, or keto
Unfortunately therapeutic keto requires a lot more precision than regular keto and scaling/logging foods is essential to that.
Request Elon Musk to finance research on metabolic diseases
Well appreciated 👍❤
I've been carnivore for over 40 days, exercise, leave at least a 16 hour fasting window and still can't get my ketones up. I tried mct oil, it didn't work. Anyone have any ideas what I'm doing wrong? I eat high fat, mod protein.
What are your ketone numbers? I was .03 for ever . 1 was drinking electrolytes sweetened with stevia. I found out I was allergic to stevia. Stopped sweeteners and my ketones went up to 1-1.5 . When I fast they are higher.
How are you measuring your ketones?
I found too much protein is not good.
@@shirleywilkinson9335 thanks for that. I'm .4 some days 1.1 others. Usually around .7
I was higher when I first went carnivore. They seem to have dropped the longer I do it. I eat ribeye or other fatty steak, chicken thighs with skin, bacon and sausages, eggs, butter. That's it.
@@hELLOGUY-gy5hg I bought a Keto Mojo blood test kit.
