Treating Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and ALS with Ketosis and Fasting | Dr. Matthew Phillips, Ep.013

Today, I am very honored to introduce none other than Dr. Matt Phillips. Matt is a clinical and research neurologist and the director of neurology at Waikato Hospital, Hamilton, New Zealand. His foremost passion is to explore the potential feasibility, safety, and efficacy of metabolic strategies, particularly fasting and ketogenic diets, in creating alternate metabolic states that may benefit people with a variety of neurological disorders. His team conducted the world's first randomized trials involving a ketogenic diet in people with both Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease, as well as the first published application of a fasting and ketogenic diet protocol in people with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and Huntington's disease. He is currently conducting a clinical trial in glioblastoma, which combines standard treatments with the most intensive fasting and ketogenic diet protocol ever applied to a group of patients with advanced cancer. He is a hero to me, my dad and my family and I am grateful for him to be with us today. Learn how ketosis and fasting can help treat Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and ALS in this informative video by Dr. Matthew Phillips. Discover the benefits of these approaches for neurodegenerative diseases.
