"Ketosis and Alzheimer's: A Metabolic Neuroscience Journey"


Bret Scher with Stephen Cunnane (41 minutes)

Metabolic Mind - 31 Aug 2023

Early evidence indicates that ketogenic therapy is a safe and effective treatment for Alzheimer’s Disease and other forms of dementia. Dr. Stephen Cunnane has been part of this field for decades and has seen the research take shape. But he’s also seen very slow adoption in clinical practice. Dr. Cunnane, professor at the University of Sherbrooke, shares his journey through this field, why he got started with ketone research, how ketogenic therapies could revolutionize how we treat dementia, and what we need to do to make it more acceptable.
