Ketogenic Diet and Supplements to Treat Parkinson's Disease

Parkinson's Disease Education Podcast

In this episode (watch on YouTube here), we delve into the powerful connection between the ketogenic diet, supplements, and their role in healing sick mitochondria, as well as their potential to treat Parkinson's disease. As mentioned in the previous video, mitochondria are often referred to as the "powerhouse of the cell", responsible for producing energy. However, when these vital organelles become dysfunctional, it can lead to a range of health issues, including Parkinson's disease. The ketogenic diet, known for its low-carbohydrate, high-fat approach, has shown promise in supporting mitochondrial health. By reducing the reliance on glucose for energy and switching to ketones (increased ketosis), which are produced from fats, this diet may help to reduce oxidative stress and inflammation, both of which can contribute to mitochondrial dysfunction. Furthermore, certain supplements have been identified as potential allies in the quest for mitochondrial health. Join us as we explore the science behind the keto diet, supplements, and their potential to heal sick mitochondria and offer hope for those living with Parkinson's disease.
