In this eye-opening episode with Dr. Latt Mansor (who I originally interviewed in the episode "Everything You Need To Know About Ketones & Ketosis," you'll get to explore how ketones can fuel your brain and body for better performance, energy, and long-term health. We dive into how ketones support cognitive function, stabilize brain networks, and enhance metabolic efficiency. You'll also discover how they help with appetite regulation, endurance, and even recovery after intense workouts. Additionally, Dr. Mansor shares how athletes are using ketones to improve sleep, spare glycogen, and support muscle repair. We wrap with an exciting look at ketones’ potential in preventing cardiovascular disease and their emerging role in cancer research.
Whether you're an athlete seeking that competitive edge, a health enthusiast keen on longevity strategies, or someone intrigued by nutritional science's latest advances, this episode promises a wealth of knowledge and practical advice. Get ready to unlock the boundless potential of ketones and redefine your approach to health and performance.
