A very informative conversation between a researcher and a practicing clinician.

Dr. Matthew Phillips is a clinical and research neurologist and the director of neurology at Waikato Hospital, Hamilton, New Zealand. His foremost passion is to explore the potential feasibility, safety, and efficacy of metabolic strategies, particularly fasting and ketogenic diets, in creating alternate metabolic states that may benefit people with a variety of neurological disorders. His team conducted the world’s first randomized trials involving a ketogenic diet in people with both Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s disease, as well as the first published application of a fasting and ketogenic diet protocol in people with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and Huntington’s disease. He is currently conducting a clinical trial in glioblastoma, which combines standard treatments with the most intensive fasting and ketogenic diet protocol ever applied to a group of patients with advanced cancer.

Notes:

They speak about protective neuron health, via fatty acids and ketones.

Ketones produce more energy per unit oxygen and produce LESS free radicals and LESS oxidative stress in the brain. This oxidative stress may be contributing to neurodegenerative disorders.

Ketones are only one part, the main focus is on optimizing mitochondria biology. (The power house of the cell, cell free mitochondria)

Lifestyle disorders, and NDDs, metabolic syndrome - Mainly due to damaged mitochondria function.

From a mito centric point of view, our health is really about the health of our mitochondria.

Attacking symptoms leaves systematic causes in place. The standard of care for lifestyle and NDDs is not great, you almost have to be your own advocate and doing your own research.

Germ theory vs Terrain theory - If the host is healthy the germs don't have much of a foothold to make you sick. We don't need better medicine, we need better metabolic health.
