The tides are turning, and people are taking charge of their health like never before! With big pharma falling short, we're in a renaissance of exploring all the ways we can feel better. #metabolicpsychiatry #neurotwitter

Ketone body metabolism has shown promising potential for enhancing wellness and ameliorating disease, including mental illness and neurological disorders.

There's so much more to learn about the power of ketone body metabolism, but the growing interest is an amazing sign for the future of healthcare.

Stories of healing are not going to be stopped. Word will get out. And with increased research findings it is inevitable that the pleiotropic effects of a ketogenic diet are embraced by the public.

Not familiar with the word pleiotropic? I wasn't either until I heard @DominicDAgosti2 use it in a podcast. Let me tell you what it means in this context. ⬇️

@DominicDAgosti2 In the context of a ketogenic diet, the term "pleiotropic" can refer to the numerous and varied ways in which this metabolic intervention can affect an individual's health and well-being.

@DominicDAgosti2 By shifting the body into a state of ketosis, the ketogenic diet can impact multiple physiological processes, including metabolism, inflammation, brain function, and more.

@DominicDAgosti2 These effects can have far-reaching implications for conditions ranging from neurological disorders to metabolic diseases, and can lead to a wide range of positive health outcomes.

@DominicDAgosti2 In this sense, the ketogenic diet can be thought of as a pleiotropic intervention, with multiple downstream effects that extend beyond its primary goal of inducing ketosis.

@DominicDAgosti2 This complexity and diversity of effects underscores the potential of the ketogenic diet as a powerful tool for improving health and well-being in a multitude of ways. Even serious mental illness and terrible neurological disorders!

@DominicDAgosti2 What a cool time to be alive and watch the science of hope unfold for those who have been told they must live with untreatable conditions. The journey of hope and possibility is well underway as we continue to explore the potential of ketone body metabolism.

@DominicDAgosti2 The future of healthcare is amazing! Regardless of whether or not the healthcare system catches up, people are going to know about this treatment because of people like you sharing information like this. 🔥
