So let's make sure that if you're going to do a ketogenic diet or a fasting regimen that you're not— depriving yourself of essential nutrition, that you're getting enough calories, you're getting enough nutrients, that you're doing it in a medically sound way so that you're optimizing your health and not hurting your health.

But we have, you know, it's hard to measure this in humans in vitro because we can't, like, do an intervention to a human and then dissect their brain and, like, biopsy it and look at the mitochondria under the microscope. So we mostly have animal data that supports this. But animal data strongly supports that ketogenic interventions improve mitophagy.

So getting rid of these old and defective mitochondria. So you're kind of cleaning house. You're getting rid of the bad, and then you're replacing them with new fresh ones, mitochondrial biogenesis, so that at the end of the day, the cell will have more healthy mitochondria. Now, some researchers have really hyper-focused on the ketogenic diet might be working through the gut microbiome.

this gut-brain connection. And we have some evidence that that is true. So researchers actually took feces from human children with epilepsy before starting a ketogenic diet and then afterward while they were stable on a ketogenic diet. And then they transferred these fecal samples to mice who were predisposed to epilepsy or predisposed to seizures.

When they took the feces from the children while the children still had or seizing, the mice were more likely to seize Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
