And so people argue, well, then, you know, this is just the ketogenic diet sort of mimics the metabolism that you'd be in when you're fasting. And we know that fasting is really good for you. So it's just mimicking that.
But I argue that fasting actually mimics the metabolic state we're supposed to be in all the time anyway, which is a ketogenic diet, which is the same metabolic pathway that most animals are in the wild. Wow. All right, guys. Dr. Anthony Chafee here today. We're going to talk the carnivore and ketosis. Let's do it, baby. Any new studies or findings recently come across your desk?
Well, there are new studies coming out all the time on ketogenic diets in general. Carnivore diet is a ketogenic diet, and typically what a ketogenic diet is is you're eliminating out carbohydrates, and you'll go into a completely different metabolic state, and you start running on your own body fat, and you produce the carbohydrates, ketones, and glycogen that you need.
And so instead of bringing in a lot of carbohydrates and shutting down your metabolism, you actually are allowing your metabolism free a bit. And so there's more and more research coming out on ketogenic diets. A carnivore diet is a ketogenic diet. When you eliminate out carbohydrates, you have to replace it with fat and protein. Where does that fat and protein come from?
It typically comes from meat, and most of the studies show that. It's a high-fat, meat-based ketogenic diet, and a carnivore diet is a high-fat, meat-based ketogenic diet, so you're cutting out the rest of the stuff too, like vegetables. So there are more studies coming out on a pure carnivore version of a ketogenic diet. but a lot of those are in the works as well.
But there are literally thousands of randomized controlled trials in humans on a high-fat meat-based ketogenic diet. It may include vegetables or not, but the main thing is being ketogenic. So the ketogenic diet is the most well-studied diet in the world. There isn't a single other diet form that has the rigor of scientific testing
that a ketogenic diet has and looking at specific endpoints and diseases. So things like diabetes has been shown in clinical trials to be reversible with a high-fat meat-based ketogenic diet. Alzheimer's, a high-fat meat-based ketogenic diet has been shown in experimental data in humans to be a better treatment for Alzheimer's than every medication ever trialed. Whoa. Yeah. That's crazy.
We know we have quite a lot of studies showing the benefits of fasting. And so if you just fast for a period of time, people can reverse a lot of diseases. We see this in different traditional cultures and religions going back thousands of years, that this can be beneficial. And we have studies showing that as well.
And so people argue, well, then this is just the key zinc diet sort of mimics fasting. the metabolism that you'd be in when you're fasting. And we know that fasting is really good for you. So it's just mimicking that.
