      Ketosis is a metabolic State , reachable with differing eating methods like vegan ,carnivore, ketovore etc . The common denominator is the minimal or absent amount of carbohydrates .

    All TRUE! When I finally achieved Ketosis my life changed. I felt that I had been insane for most of my life. I was depressed, getting stupider and meaner all the time. This is such a powerful therapy that I hope it is recognized and used to help heal everyone in mental pain.

    Thank you for an inspirational presentation. "Therapeutic nutritional ketosis intervention" drives home the power of this medical treatment. Beyond my wildest expectation I witnessed my wonderful daughter return to sanity within 2 or 3 months of getting into moderate ketosis after 15 years of severe and chronic anorexia. We tried every medical intervention and modality available to pull her out of this nasty disease, and nothing made a dent. It is so important that the word gets out about this powerful intervention. Thank you!

    Excellent talk. Nutrition / teaching in general takes EXTRA time. Most appts allow only 15 min. I don't think practitioners have time to LISTEN to what patients are saying or FEELING. Often I feel practitioners poo poo what patients learn on the internet. Lots of bad stuff on YT but there is lots of GOOD like this talk. Makes us THINK. thank you

    Great idea to prescribe this ketonic nutritional intervention with meal plans, customization towards what people like to eat, calls to help support and answer questions, and a ketone glucose monitor to check progress. A CGM script would also be nice to verify glucose levels all day long.😊. I'm doing this diet and after 2 years it does have it's challenges.

With all these info going on for years, it is rather sad that practicing doctors here remain unaware, or they are but choose to be so.

      Why consider the brain as something other than a part of the body - the part on the other side of your neck from your heart? That's what I find confusing. Something about a mind/body split that is not universal. There is a lot of neural tissue in other parts of your body.
