Episode 2668: Vinnie Tortorich and Chris Shaffer discuss the MIND diet and how healthy fats for a healthy mind happen with the right whole foods, and more. https://vinnietortorich.com/2025/07/healthy-fats-for-a-healthy-mind-episode-2668 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS YOU CAN WATCH ALL THE PODCAST EPISODES ON YOUTUBE - Healthy Fats for A Healthy Mind The MIND Diet (2:30) The Mediterranean Intervention Neurodegeneration Diet, intended to slow cognitive decline. They discuss the suggested protocol, which still includes grains and almost no red meat, only fatty fish and chicken. It recommends avoiding saturated fat. The protocol is erratic and contradicts itself. (8:30) Epidemiological studies are not always accurate. Dr. Mary Newport has been on the show and specifically studies cognitive decline. (16:00) Studies demonstrate that saturated fats from coconut oil (MCT oil) and a ketogenic diet can slow cognitive decline and even reduce symptoms. (17:00) Here are links to some of Dr. Mary Newport's books: The Coconut Oil and Low-Carb Solution for Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and Other Diseases: A Guide to Using Diet and a High-Energy Food to Protect and Nourish the Brain Alzheimer's Disease: What If There Was a Cure (3rd Edition): The Story of Ketones Clearly Keto: For Healthy Brain Aging and Alzheimer's Prevention The Complete Book of Ketones: A Practical Guide to Ketogenic Diets and Ketone Supplements The Mediterranean Diet is based on inaccurate and manipulated information. (19:00) The focus should not be on cutting out saturated fat, but rather on cutting out processed foods. (21:00) How good is a vegan chocolate cake? (24:00) A New York Times journalist states her reason for going vegan. After looking the author up, she is an environmental advocate; she is vegan based on her environmental beliefs, not likely because she had a good vegan chocolate cake. Just be authentic and accurate! Everyone can agree that everyone should eat clean, whole foods. Period.

Dr. Thomas Weims, Professor at UC Santa Barbara, shares his revolutionary findings on treating polycystic kidney disease through ketogenic interventions. After 25 years of research, his lab accidentally discovered that ketosis dramatically halts and even reverses PKD progression—something previously thought impossible. The medical establishment had long maintained that PKD, a genetic disease affecting 600,000 Americans, was untreatable through dietary means. Yet Weims' research demonstrates that beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHB), the primary ketone produced during ketosis, shows more potent effects than any pharmacological intervention his team tested. In a groundbreaking clinical trial, patients on a ketogenic diet experienced improved kidney function and reduced kidney volume in just three months—the first time such reversal has ever been documented in PKD. Weims explains the science behind this therapeutic approach, how it challenges entrenched medical dogma, and why this metabolic therapy may benefit all forms of chronic kidney disease. This conversation exposes how decades of medical education about diet and kidney health have been based on hypothetical papers rather than clinical evidence, offering hope to millions suffering from progressive kidney conditions.BIG IDEA"What we found more recently is that the progression of polycystic kidney disease is not really driven by gene mutations as previously thought—a patient inherits a bad gene, but that doesn't necessarily mean they will have rapidly progressing PKD."Gary Taubes Contact InfoWebsite: https://uncertaintyprinciples.substack.com/Website: https://garytaubes.com/Send Dr. Ovadia a Text Message.

Ako my rodičia dokážeme zmeniť domáce či školské prostredie, ktoré formuje naše deti najviac? Prečo si potrebujeme uvedomiť, že vychovávame naše deti v prostredí ktoré je chudobné na pohyb a bohaté na nevýživné kalórie? My rodičia na to máme veľký vplyv - ale ako? V tomto podcaste sme sa zhovárali na tému stravovania a pohybu detí, v projekte "Po špičkách" a spovedá ma moderátorka Barbora Chlebcová. Moja odpoveď je, že my rodičia to vieme zmeniť najmä tak, že budeme o tom menej hovoriť a viac ukazovať našim deťom svoj vlastný osobný príklad (vzor). Je to veľmi jednoduché aj keď netvrdím, že je to ľahké no iná cesta neexistuje. Viac tipov sa dozvieš v podcaste.

While intermittent fasting may have beneficial effects on various autoimmune diseases, fasting is not right for everyone. Intermittent fasting can be detrimental for people with autoimmune issues because it can potentially exacerbate their condition by putting additional stress on the immune system, which is already dysregulated in autoimmune diseases, potentially leading to increased inflammation and flare-ups due to the body's tendency to attack its own tissues during fasting periods. Why intermittent fasting may not be right for someone with autism: Immune system disruption: Fasting can cause fluctuations in immune cell activity, potentially leading to an overactive immune response in individuals with autoimmune diseases where the body is already attacking its own tissues. PANS is an autoimmune attack on the brain and it is very common in children with autism. You will see a sudden onset of OCD, clinginess, and fearfulness. Increased inflammation: While some research suggests intermittent fasting might reduce inflammation in healthy individuals, in autoimmune conditions, it could trigger increased inflammatory markers due to the body's altered immune response. Stress on the body: The stress of fasting can further exacerbate autoimmune symptoms. If your immune system is fragile and you're constantly having flare-ups, you might want to avoid fasting until your body is stronger. What to do instead: Focus on a balanced, healthy diet with controlled portion sizes, regular exercise, and mindful eating habits to achieve similar health benefits, prioritizing nutrient-dense foods and limiting processed options; essentially, managing your overall calorie intake without strict fasting windows. Ketogenic Diets are popular for this reason. A ketogenic diet primarily consists of high-fats, moderate-proteins, and very-low-carbohydrates. The dietary macronutrients are divided into approximately 55% to 60% fat, 30% to 35% protein and 5% to 10%carbohydrates. In our episode Healthy Carbs, Candida Control, and What You Can Do To Soothe Autism Symptoms [Podcast Episode #210] we discussed how low-carb diets can be potentially sleep disruptive and anxiety provoking if candida overgrowth is still strong and candida is eating up all of the glucose our brain needs. This is very common in sleep disorders. I discuss this in detail in my podcast episode # 133, How To Improve Sleep Tied To Candida Induced Hypoglycemia. ...

With so many conflicting studies and experts shouting from every corner, it's easy to lose sight of one simple truth: your body knows best. In this episode of the Primal Shift Podcast, I'm calling out the noise around “good” vs. “bad” foods and diving straight into the powerful signals your body sends every time you eat. From unexplained breakouts and weird cravings to stubborn heartburn and crashing energy levels, your physiology is practically begging you to pay attention. We'll explore how issues like bloating, bad breath, headaches, and even mood swings can be early warning signs that a particular food isn't working for you — no matter what the latest scientific study or diet guru claims. Yes, science and ancestral wisdom matter, but they mean little if you feel lousy every time you bite into certain foods. Think of it as detective work: noticing patterns between what you ate and how you slept, how your skin looks, or whether you're getting random joint pain or weird body odor. If you've ever felt guilty because some “healthy” item (like sourdough or raw milk) just doesn't sit right with you, this episode is your permission slip to trust yourself. It's not about demonizing specific foods; it's about becoming so in tune with your body that you can instantly tell the difference between a mild craving and a genuine sign of hunger — or a subtle symptom and a flashing red light. When in doubt, remember: if it doesn't feel good, it probably isn't good for you. Your unique biology is more than just numbers on a lab test or words in a research paper… it's an entire feedback system that never stops working. So give yourself the freedom to listen, experiment, and (yes) sometimes say no to foods that simply don't serve you.

Roxana Soetebeer, once considered a "hopeless" type 2 diabetic on 50 units of insulin, completely reversed her condition through a ketogenic diet, demonstrating that type 2 diabetes is not the "chronic progressive disease" her doctors claimed it to be.KISMETWhen Roxana's blood sugar levels dangerously spiked to the 400s, her desperate late-night call to a friend led to a life-changing recommendation to watch Dr. Stephen Phinney's lecture on the ketogenic diet – a coincidence that completely transformed her health trajectory and sparked her mission to help others.EPISODE SUMMARYRoxana Soetebeer shares her remarkable journey from severe type 2 diabetes to complete remission. After being told her condition was "chronic and progressive," Roxana found herself with dangerously high blood sugar levels around 400. In a desperate moment, a friend recommended she watch Dr. Stephen Phinney's lecture on the ketogenic diet. Within days of starting keto, Roxana saw dramatic improvements. She cut her insulin dose in half immediately and eventually eliminated it completely. Beyond diabetes reversal, her kidney disease, fatty liver disease (NASH), and acid reflux resolved as well. Roxana discusses her struggle with sugar addiction, comparing it to other substance addictions and explaining why "moderation" fails for true addicts. Now a certified Metabolic Health Practitioner, she runs a Facebook group with over 20,000 members and advocates for others. Her story challenges the conventional medical approach that treats metabolic conditions as inevitable, progressive diseases requiring lifelong medication.NOTABLE QUOTE"If you had asked me six years ago if I would be getting better or healthier or would get off insulin, I would have said no way, I tried everything...

He has researched cancer metabolism, epilepsy, and lipid biochemistry for over 40 years.Note: Podcast episodes are fully available to paid subscribers on the M&M Substack and everyone on YouTube. Partial versions are available elsewhere. Transcript and other information on Substack.Episode Summary: Dr. Thomas Seyfried discusses the mitochondrial metabolic theory of cancer, challenging the dominant somatic mutation theory. He explores how cancer cells rely on fermentation due to defective oxidative phosphorylation, drawing on Otto Warburg's work. Seyfried explains how ketogenic diets and nutritional ketosis can starve cancer cells by limiting glucose and glutamine, while sharing evidence from nuclear transfer experiments and clinical studies. The conversation also covers environmental factors driving cancer and the importance of metabolic flexibility for prevention.Key Takeaways:Cancer is characterized by dysregulated cell growth, but Seyfried argues it stems from mitochondrial dysfunction, not just genetic mutations.Cancer cells ferment glucose & glutamine, unable to use fatty acids or ketones, making ketogenic diets a potential therapeutic tool.Nuclear transfer experiments show cancer traits reside in the cytoplasm, not the nucleus, challenging the somatic mutation theory.Environmental factors like processed foods, stress, and poor sleep disrupt mitochondrial function, increasing cancer risk.Seyfried's glucose-ketone index helps monitor metabolic states to manage cancer & chronic diseases.Cancer rates are rising in younger people, possibly due to obesity, inflammation, and environmental toxins.Metabolic flexibility, cycling between ketosis and carb-based states, may mimic ancestral patterns and reduce chronic disease risk.Related episode:M&M #215: Cancer Metabolism: Sugar, Fructose, Lipids & Fasting | Gary PattiSupport the showAll episodes, show notes, transcripts, etc. at the M&M Substack Affiliates: Lumen device to optimize your metabolism for weight loss or athletic performance.

The Love, Happiness and Success Podcast With Dr. Lisa Marie Bobby
What if your anxiety, brain fog, or mood swings aren't in your mind... but in your mitochondria? I know—that sounds wild. But in this jaw-dropping episode of Love, Happiness & Success, I'm talking with Dr. Bret Scher about something that completely changed the way I think about mental health: Metabolic Psychiatry. We dive into the cutting-edge (but surprisingly old!) science behind mind and energy psychiatry that connects mental health challenges like depression, anxiety, ADHD, and even serious psychiatric conditions with how your body uses energy. Spoiler alert: your brain runs on fuel, and what you eat matters a lot more than we were taught in grad school. Together, Dr. Scher and I unpack how ketogenic therapy is helping people reclaim their mental clarity, lift mood disorders, and, in some cases, experience complete transformation. If you've been “doing the work” and still not feeling like yourself, this conversation might be the missing piece you've been searching for.

Send us a textShort Summary: Heart health and the ketogenic diet, with expert insights from a cardiologist and researcher.About the guest: Matthew Budoff, MD, is a preventive cardiologist and professor of medicine at UCLA School of Medicine.Note: Podcast episodes are fully available to paid subscribers on the M&M Substack and everyone on YouTube. Partial versions are available elsewhere. Transcript and other information on Substack.Episode Summary: Dr. Matthew Budoff discusses cholesterol, heart disease, and his study on the ketogenic diet's impact on lean, metabolically healthy individuals with high LDL cholesterol. He explains LDL, HDL, and triglycerides, debunking myths about their direct link to heart disease, and emphasizes the importance of coronary calcium scans to assess plaque buildup. Budoff also covers statins, dietary cholesterol, and personalized heart health strategies.Key Takeaways:LDL cholesterol is not a definitive predictor of heart disease; plaque buildup, assessed via coronary calcium scans, is a better indicator.Lean metabolically healthy people on a ketogenic diet may have high LDL without increased plaque progression after one year.Coronary calcium scans, costing ~$100, are recommended for men around age 40 and women around 45-50 to evaluate heart disease risk.Statins effectively lower LDL and can reverse soft plaque, but may be overprescribed for those without plaque buildup.Dietary cholesterol has minimal impact on blood cholesterol, as the liver produces ~85% of it.Ketogenic diet can aid weight loss & diabetes control but may cause high LDL in some lean individuals, known as lean mass hyper-responders.Plaque progression depends more on existing plaque than LDL levels in metabolically healthy ketogenic diet followers.Heart health varies widely due to genetics and other unknown factors, underscoring the need for personalized assessments.Related episode:M&M #158: Ketosis & Ketogenic Diet: Brain & Mental Health, Metabolism, Diet & Exercise, Cancer, Diabetes | Dominic D'AgoSupport the showAll episodes, show notes, transcripts, etc. at the M&M Substack Affiliates: Lumen device to optimize your metabolism for weight loss or athletic performance.

Episode 2892: The ketogenic diet has surged in popularity, but is it truly beneficial for everyone? Dr. Neal Malik breaks down the science behind ketosis, exploring its origins, potential benefits, and risks. He also discusses whether supplementing with ketones offers the same advantages as following a strict ketogenic diet, providing insights into the latest research on how genetics may play a role in the diet's effectiveness. Quotes to ponder: "Keto gained popularity not necessarily because of its effectiveness, but due to athlete and celebrity endorsements." "In the short term, the ketogenic diet appears to be relatively safe for otherwise healthy individuals, but switching from a standard diet can come with side effects." "Those with Inuit ancestry may have a special genetic adaptation that prevents their bodies from producing ketones, suggesting that not everyone is built for ketosis."

In this Huberman Lab Essentials episode, I explain how hormones regulate hunger, appetite and feelings of satiety (fullness), along with strategies to help control appetite. I describe how the body senses nutrient levels and how the brain processes these signals to stimulate hunger or suppress appetite. I also discuss how certain foods can help curb hunger, while processed foods and emulsifiers can interfere with satiety signals, leading to overeating. Additionally, I cover how lifestyle factors such as exercise and meal timing regulate blood glucose levels, which in turn impact hunger and appetite. Huberman Lab Essentials episodes are approximately 30 minutes long and focus on essential science and protocol takeaways from past Huberman Lab episodes. Essentials will be released every Thursday, while our full-length episodes will continue to be released every Monday. This Huberman Lab Essentials is from the full-length Huberman Lab episode, “How Our Hormones Control Our Hunger, Eating & Satiety.” Read the full episode show notes at hubermanlab.com.
