Keto Might Help Mental Health
from Science News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
New research is sparking buzz: the keto diet might be more than just a weight-loss tool—it could help treat serious mental health conditions like depression, schizophrenia, and even anorexia. Scientists believe ketosis may fix brain energy issues linked to these disorders, offering an alternative fuel source when glucose fails. Early trials show promise, especially for treatment-resistant depression, with ongoing studies exploring bipolar and schizophrenia. Keto may also calm brain chemistry, boost mitochondria, and reduce inflammation. Even for anorexia, a modified keto approach showed symptom improvement—without calorie restriction. But experts warn: never try this without medical supervision, as it can interact with meds and trigger mood swings. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
