Ketogenic Metabolic Therapy (aka ketogenic diet) has profound effects not only on the body's metabolism but on brain function. Pioneering clinicians are using ketogenic interventions to treat mental disorders like bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, anxiety and depression. Physicians and Neuroscientists explain how keto (aka ketogenic diet / nutritional ketosis) affects the brain. Learn how ketogenic metabolic therapy works to restore brain function, reducing or eliminating symptoms of mental illness. “Ketosis changes our metabolic physiology, which changes our brain chemistry. It can balance the neurotransmitter systems in the brain, balance the energy levels in the brain, and reduce systemic inflammation, which reduces neuroinflammation.” Dominic D’Agostino, PhD, research scientist at IHMC and Associate Professor at University of South Florida.
