Understanding the Therapeutic Potential of Ketogenic Diets with Dom D'Agostino, PhD! 544

Send us a text Dominic D’Agostino, Ph.D., has maintained involvement in a vast array of professional, academic and personal endeavors related to ketone research. As an Associate Professor with tenure at the University of South Florida, Dom teaches students of the Morsani College of Medicine and the Department of Molecular Pharmacology and Physiology, with a focus on such topics as neuropharmacology, medical biochemistry, physiology, and neuroscience. The primary focus of his work is the human state of ketosis, ketogenesis, and developing and testing metabolic-based therapies, including dietary therapies, nutritional supplements and a variety of metabolic-based drugs. In this episode, we explore the benefits of the ketogenic diet and consuming exogenous ketones.  We unravel how ketogenic diets can not only reduce inflammation and prevent seizures, but also potentially showcase anti-cancer effects, and the fascinating role of metabolic physiology in tweaking gene expression for optimum health. We also address the potential of exogenous ketones in ramping up athletic performance and the crucial role of continuous glucose monitors. We dive into the intriguing synergy between ketogenic diets and cancer treatments, the impact of ketogenic diets on metabolism, and fat oxidation. This episode is truly a must-listen for fitness enthusiasts, ketogenic diet followers, and anyone interested in the burgeoning field of nutrition and biology.
