Let’s talk about the different but complementary benefits of the ketogenic diet and intermittent fasting. I’ll start with keto.

When you drop your carbs, your body produces ketones from fat. Same for intermittent fasting. With fasting, you don’t stimulate the production of GIP hormone in your small intestine, which will cause your body to produce even more ketones. When you eat, this hormone is triggered, which in turn triggers insulin.

Cancer lives on glucose and an amino acid called glutamine. When you do keto, you starve the cancer cells of glucose. Tumors can’t live on ketones but they can live on glutamine, which is why it’s crucial to also do intermittent fasting — because fasting lowers glutamine.

When you do healthy keto (not dirty keto), you’re providing nutrients such as trace minerals, vitamins, and amino acids to your body, as well as essential fatty acids. Intermittent fasting doesn’t provide nutrients since you’re not eating, but it can increase the amount of antioxidants in your body.

Fasting improves autophagy, a process in which your body recycles old, damaged proteins. You’ll activate longevity genes and drop inflammation much more than only lowering your carbs will. Inflammation is a key factor in many chronic illnesses such as cancer, diabetes, autoimmune diseases, and all forms of arthritis. Even neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s.

With fasting, you get a massive spike in growth hormone; up to 2,000 percent. And your body will build up an antioxidant reserve to protect against free radical damage.

Your brain prefers ketones. If you have a damaged brain, say dementia or Alzheimer’s, you should know that ketones can bypass damaged brain cells and directly feed your neurons. But you need to have more ketones than glucose in your blood. On a high-carb diet, you’ll eventually develop insulin resistance, which can lead to damaged brain cells.

If you have brain cells that are damaged, and it’s taking awhile for you to experience the benefits of the ketogenic diet and fasting, I recommend you take MCT oil to speed up the benefits.
