In this episode, Dr. Scott and Tommy discuss the neuroprotective effects of fasting, which are related to ketone levels, cellular mechanisms, and metabolism. Ketone testing is also discussed, as it can aid in fasting, correlating how one feels at certain intervals, and positive reinforcement when determining when to break a fast. Understanding how and when to test for ketones can make a big difference in long-term results with fasting.   https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7699472/ https://keto-mojo.com/testing-when-to-test-ketones-glucose/   Partnership with Keto-Mojo!!
