In this episode, we’re taking a closer look at ketosis and how the ketogenic diet has evolved beyond just a weight-loss tool. I’m joined by Dr. Dominic D’Agostino, who unpacks the science behind Ketone Metabolic Therapy (KMT) and its growing role in treating conditions like epilepsy, neurological issues, and metabolic disorders. His research sheds light on the therapeutic potential of ketones, which are not only vital for energy but also key players in reducing inflammation and enhancing brain health.
We also clear up some common misconceptions about keto, like battling the keto flu, and talk about practical ways to adopt and optimize the diet for better overall health. Whether you’re curious about using keto for disease management or just want to understand how it can support mental and physical wellness, this episode has something for you. It’s all about understanding the science and making the keto lifestyle work for your body!
Key Takeaways:The ketogenic diet historically originated as a treatment for epilepsy and has expanded to other therapeutic areas, such as metabolic syndrome and neurodegenerative diseases.
Ketone bodies, especially beta-hydroxybutyrate, perform dual roles as potent energy sources and cell signaling molecules that offer anti-inflammatory benefits.
Keto metabolic therapy (KMT) encompasses multiple approaches, including diet, fasting, and supplements, to maintain therapeutic ketosis.
Adoption of a ketogenic lifestyle may require supplement support, particularly with electrolytes, to avoid side effects like keto flu.
Variations in genetic and gender responses can influence the effectiveness and experience of ketosis, necessitating personalized dietary adjustments.
Dr. Dominic D’Agostino is a tenured Associate Professor in the Department of Molecular Pharmacology and Physiology at the University of South Florida (USF) Morsani College of Medicine and serves as a Visiting Senior Research Scientist at the Institute for Human and Machine Cognition (IHMC). He earned his B.S. in Nutritional Science and Biological Sciences from Rutgers University in 1998, followed by a Predoctoral Fellowship in Neuroscience and Physiology at Rutgers and the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey (UMDNJ) in 1999. In 2004, he completed a postdoctoral fellowship in Neuroscience at the Boonshoft School of Medicine at Wright State University in Ohio before joining USF in 2006. In addition to his teaching responsibilities, Dr. D’Agostino leads a lab focused on developing and testing nutritional strategies and metabolic-based therapies for neurological disorders, cancer, and metabolic optimization. His research includes both basic science studies and human clinical trials. He has a personal interest in environmental medicine and developing methods to enhance the safety and physiological resilience of military personnel and astronauts in extreme environments. Dr. D’Agostino’s research in metabolic control and neuroscience is supported by the Office of Naval Research (ONR), Department of Defense (DoD), private organizations, and nonprofit foundations.
