Additional Evidence For The Ketogenic Diet Improving Immunity Interestingly the intimidating sounding 2-deoxy-D-glucose (2-DG) might help starve COVID-19 by depriving viral infected cells of glucose and reducing the virus’ way it hides from the immune system. Many viruses “hide” from our immune system so it can grow and spread through your cells while preventing our […]

Does a Ketogenic Diet protect against viral infections ?
Does a Ketogenic diet protect against viral infections? There is no specific evidence that nutritional ketosis will help specifically protect against COVID-19. It’s too new of a virus to have done the research on COVID-19. HOWEVER, there is evidence that a ketogenic diet can improve immune system function against other viruses. Animal studies published in […]
Blood Sugar Control Is A Key Factor In COVID-19
Evidence That Blood Sugar Control Is A Key Factor In Immunity. Glucose control may be key for protection against COVID-19, especially for diabetes patients, since viruses tend to high jack cellular machinery to increase glycolysis. Hyperglycemia (high blood sugar) not only promoted viral shedding and pathogenicity, but impairs immunity by disrupting function of white blood […]
Weight As A COVID-19 Risk Factor
A recent article talks about obesity as a significant risk factor for covid 19 complications. There have been several articles and expert opinions voicing that a central problem associated with higher risk factors for covid19 complications is that of metabolic syndrome.
