I'm Keto/OMAD. I do a four day cycle, three days of one meal a day, and the forth day I fast. Because I am OMAD, that works out to 47 hours of fasting every four day cycle. In addition to this, once a month I do a three day fast that is actually 95 hours long. I've lost a good amount of unhealthy weight and a myriad of health issues have vanished as a result. However the primary reason I have adopted this lifestyle is to ensure my brain health. Both my mother and my father suffered from dementia in their last decade of life, and I very much want to exit the world with my brain in full operation.

[jonwesleybraswell]

in the last 19 months of being on keto I've never been more awake or more alive. Amazing...

[ManifestYourBestLifeNow]

Nice presentation. Im a Nurse. It's great to see MD's continue to learn new info, Not just hanging their hats on what they were taught in school. As a medical care provider I've seen the spectrum in physicians.... those that are humble and are open minded to learning and those that are not. Great job Doc.

Browsing YouTube, looking to learn about what can help my brain function, now that I turned 70. So glad I found Dr. Boz. I just ordered her book. I am VERY impressed by this lady!

[dougg]

I almost completely lost much of my memory function, especially short term memory. It was driving me, and my family crazy. I forgot everything. It was very frightening.
Enter Keto/fasting.
Like magic my memory started to noticeably return as well as all cognitive function. I had been using coconut oil, but not regularly.
When I began using MTC oil daily in my black coffee the miracle began. My life literally changed for the best.
I had previously banned most carbs with that I lost 40 lbs and my body felt more healthy but
my mind was still going. MTC oil is a miracle. Also virgin olive oil and I eat one meal a day.

[melanieberthelo]

MCT oil lifted me out of brain fog. I'm extremely happy to see more Doctors talking about ketones and brain health.

[BunkSpubbler]

I have been on Keto since mid April 2020 - I have lost nearly 84 lbs - I feel superhuman - my brain is just snappy - no fog - loads of energy - its amazing... truly WHY ISN'T THE WHOLE WORLD ONTO THIS?

[remade.lizzie-upcycleddiys]

You have no idea how thankful i am to have found you today!!! I am doing keto after studying about ti for months and months. Everyone wants to talk about weight loss but i am small already. my struggle is brain and energy related. I have struggled with memory issue and joint pain for years and i am still young.. 32. It is hard to find information about mental benefits of keto. thank you for you dedication to it!

[RobCLynch]

I lost 88 pounds of body weight with Keto and intermittent fasting - which I've been doing for 10 months and I will keep doing forever.
I'm educating my mum about ketones and the brain, because I definitely think we don't know enough about the function of the brain.

[allaboutmycats]

I am another ketogenic sucesos story-40 yr diabetic 10 yrs on insulin start keto March 2018 in 4 mos NO meds, down 80 lbs in 1- yr feel great

[loveofsisrael]

may the lord bless u and keep you shine his face upon you forever

[bevtaggart]

Wow! I'm a new fan. I lost my mom 6 years ago to Alzheimer's. She regularly ate fast food. I wish we had known about keto.

[roblovegreen]

Brain recovery regimen to increase neurogenesis: lions mane mushroom, turmeric with black pepper extract, high dose fish oil, ketogenic diet, intermittent fasting, blueberries, cardio exercise, sauna sessions followed by cold showers.

[Appleblade]

Dr. Boz... it's probably impolite to comment on your appearance, but it looks to me you're looking healthier over time, unlike most doctors. lol! It's a real factor in choosing the right medical advice, I think.... finding a doctor who practices what she preaches, and has good health herself.

Hello Doc Boz. I was on Antidepressants from 94 until May 21. Started a couple years after Desert Storm. In November of 2020 I started following Dr Jason Fung's IF instructions. Then in May of 2021 I started transitioning to Keto, as best as I understood it.
Around the same time I had to DC my Zoloft (it was making me nap during the day).
I have been Depression Free since then!
Still scored kust a bit low on a recent CF test. The therapist didn't feel it was adult ADHD, but I Do! He wasn't interested in pursuing what it was. I am 66yo and I believe he just thought it was age. I Do Not & will be pursuing a second opinion from Murray St. U's Psychological testing dept in Jan.
Thanks for all the Great Content! 👍

Thank you Dr. Boz,
I am going to get my 89 year old friend on the 45 grams of MCT.
I have gotten him on a keto diet for a month and he is feeling fine and has lost 10 pounds in 3 weeks.
Blessings in Him,
Dave

You are looking more radiant. I watched a video from 8 mths ago and I notice a difference. A Fresher and younger looking face☀️ yay ketones👏

[threesacquisitions]

I had open heart surgery in Dec 2017. I noticed a marked decline in cognitive function (ie forgetfullness, trouble forming words and sentences, visual and auditory hallucinations) or pumphead. I have been on strict keto since Dec 2018. Along with a 41 lb weight loss I have also noticed a huge improvement in my memory and ability to concentrate. I have added MCT oil at 45g to my daily meal plan and feel amazing. Looking forward to sharing this video and my experience with anyone I know. Thank you Dr. Boz!

I have birth-onset spastic( non-epileptic) CP. On Feb 14, 2018 I started on Keto-IF. My non-voluntary muscle movement all but disappeared within 6 months--NVMM is only noticeable when my carb count climbs above 100 carbs/day. Needless to say, I don't cheat often. My balance improvement is also exponential on Keto. Chronic depression that I have suffered with since age 10 disappeared within weeks of starting Keto. I really wish I could get the Physical Rehab community to study the Keto effects on a CP/Stroke brain. I think a lot of suffering could be mitigated.

That one full day / week fasting is what I just started doing (after having done 5, 7, and 9 day fasts). I love how it makes me feel. The fasting day is the best day of the week! ;)
