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 […]
How Glucose Is Required For Viral Infections
How Glucose Is Required For Viral Infections. In order to replicate itself a virus hijacks the cell and it’s glucose using machinery for energy. This is a great, but highly technical article that describes exactly this process. Viral Hikacking Of Cellular Machinery Conclusions (from article cited below): “Many studies have demonstrated that viruses reprogram cell […]
Improving MS With A Ketogenic Diet
A ketogenic diet offers some significant benefits for many people with neurological problems, even though it is most associated with weight loss. Here, we’ll talk about using the ketogenic diet to improve function in a person suffering with MS (Multiple Sclerosis). Of course, there are many things to consider for each individual when it comes […]
Therapeutic Use Of Ketosis For Neurological Disorders
A Ketogenic Diet Can Have A Profound Impact On Reducing Neurological Inflammation. The following are just a few short summaries of interesting recent papers that show significant benefits for adopting a ketogenic diet for neurological disorders. The ketogenic diet provides several advantages for neurological disorders. Ketosis improves metabolic factors, reducing insulin resistance, and improving energy […]
A Diet To Prevent The Flu?
The Ketogenic Diet Reduces Flu and Flu Related Deaths (at least in mice). I’ll briefly discuss a recent study published in the Journal of Immunology that shows a surprising benefit of ketogenic diets. Before I do though, think about this one thing… throughout human history, we’ve relied upon seasonal, locally available plants and animals for […]
