In this deeply personal and courageous episode of The Metabolic Link, we hear from patient advocate and podcast co-host Matt Baszucki, who shares how he endured—and ultimately overcame—type 1 bipolar disorder through a radical shift in treatment: ketogenic metabolic therapy. After years of hospitalizations, debilitating mood episodes, and failed conventional treatments, Matt found hope through the emerging field of metabolic psychiatry. With the help of his family, including support and clinical guidance from Dr. Christopher Palmer, Matt adopted a therapeutic ketogenic diet in 2021—and the results were extraordinary. Now a thriving project manager in Silicon Valley and co-host of The BipolarCast, Matt is helping drive a movement that challenges the very foundation of how we treat mental illness. This episode is not just about recovery—it's about transformation, resilience, and the future of mental health care.

PLUS use code blackfriday at checkout to receive 50% off your first 3 months (through November 29th): https://membership.metabolicinitiative.com In this episode of The Metabolic Link filmed at Metabolic Health Summit 2024, Dr. Valter Longo shares his latest research on the fasting mimicking diet (FMD) and its powerful impact on aging, metabolic diseases, and cancer treatment. With a focus on periodic fasting interventions, Dr. Longo highlights the role of FMD in activating stem cells, enhancing cellular repair mechanisms, and even reversing metabolic dysfunctions like insulin resistance and type 1 diabetes. Dr. Longo’s work is paving the way for more accessible, non-invasive therapies for chronic conditions, with far-reaching implications for aging, cancer prevention, and metabolic health. If you’re an academic, medical professional, or researcher, you won’t want to miss this in-depth discussion on how FMD could shape the future of medicine. Valter Longo, PhD, is the Edna Jones Professor in Gerontology, the Director of the USC Longevity Institute and group leader at the IFOM cancer research institute in Milan, Italy. His laboratories study the fundamental mechanisms of aging in yeast, rodents and humans by using genetics and biochemistry techniques. The focus is on the nutrient-response signal transduction pathways that regulate disease and longevity. This work led to the discovery of the effects of periodic fasting and fasting mimicking diets on multi-system stem cell activation and regeneration in mice, and to clinical trials on a range of age-related diseases.
