Insulin, Ketones & Dementia — The Diary of a CEO (6‑Minute Condensed)
Update: 2025-11-24
Description
What if a hidden hormone — insulin — is quietly driving brain decline, and ketones are the cleaner fuel that can reverse it? (Original episode: 2 hours → Summary: 6 minutes.) In this condensed conversation, host Steven Bartlett and guest Dr. Annette Bosworth outline the provocative link between chronic insulin elevation, insulin resistance, and dementia, and give practical, evidence‑focused steps to change course. Learn why Dr. Bosworth calls insulin “a chronic disease maker,” how regular ketone production can reduce cellular “trash,” and the simple interventions she uses: time‑restricted eating, very low carb intake, staged fasting, the sardine challenge, and targeted measurement of glucose, ketones and the Dr. B ratio. You’ll also get clinician tips on supplements, exogenous ketones, and how metabolic rewiring improves cognition, mood, sleep and recovery. Keywords: dementia, insulin resistance, ketogenic diet, fasting, glucose, ketones, brain health. Listen now to get the key ideas in minutes.
