Description

In this episode of Death Clock, Brent speaks with Dr. Matthew Taylor, the director of the Brain Nutrition Lab at the University of Kansas Medical Center, to break down everything you need to know about the ketogenic diet. They talk about what it is, how it works, and what science actually says about its benefits. Dr. Taylor explains how shifting the body's fuel source from glucose to ketones can improve metabolic health, sharpen cognitive function, and even show promise in slowing diseases like Alzheimer's. They cover the basics of entering ketosis, the truth about "keto flu," the role of fasting, and why the diet's effects on cholesterol and heart health are more nuanced than most headlines suggest. Hope you enjoy.
