Not only is Dominic D’Agostino a researcher, professor, and neuroscientist, he’s also a biohacker and athlete. In this episode we discuss using calorie restriction, fasting, and the ketogenic diet to boost brain function, fat loss, athletic performance, and for therapeutic purposes, particularly regarding brain-related diseases and cancer.
The primary focus of his laboratory is developing and testing metabolic therapies, including ketogenic diets, ketone esters and natural and synthetic molecules to target metabolic processes. His research also explores the use of these therapies for a broad range of disorders. D’Agostino’s laboratory uses in vivo and in vitro techniques to understand the physiological, cellular and molecular mechanism of metabolic therapies. His research is supported by the Office of Naval Research (ONR), Department of Defense (DoD), private organizations and foundations.
So if you or somebody you know is suffering through neurodegenerative disease, diabetes, cancer or you just want to avoid these things in the future, this episode is definitely one you’ll want to pay attention to and share with those who might really need this info.
