hi guys in this video I’m going to talk about the cognitive and mood effects of doing Kido an intimate of fasting unfortunately there’s not a lot of studies that are done I mean first of all who’s gonna sponsor those studies the drug companies the food manufacturing companies no so there’s not a lot of studies however there is some extensive Studies on epilepsy being improved on the Kido the other problem is that there’s no standard keto diet out there ok so you have traditional ketosis which you’re using margarine and oil and a lot of unhealthy things which I don’t recommend even the camp programs complementary and alternative health funding and NIH first of all I know the doctors on the board are not very open to alternative medicine in fact they’re real skeptical so you’re probably not gonna see a lot of grants being authorized to do Studies on healthy ketosis so and unfortunately you’re probably going to just have to do your own Studies on your own body to see if it works for you now if we flip it and look at the studies done with people with high blood sugars and high insulin we can clearly see that doing high carb is not good for the brain causing dementia it actually causes atrophy of the brain shrinkage of your brain it destroys the part of the brain called hippocampus so you lose your memory so we know the on the output extreme that being a diabetic is not good for the brain and your memory and your mood now let’s say someone has hypoglycemia low blood sugars well I already know the mood is going to be greatly affected irritability anxiety and definitely sadness and depression those are known effects from low blood sugar and that could be coming from the insulin resistance okay because the body that makes more insulin to shove down that blood sugar but it could be like borderline so there’s a lot of factors here because there’s one thing about the brain the brain does not store sugar okay it doesn’t have glycogen or it doesn’t like the liver has a glycogen reserve the brain doesn’t have its own reserve of stored sugar so it gets its from the blood so if there’s low blood sugar then the brain suffers you can get headaches migraines and a lot of mood disorders and I know from personal experience working with thousands of people when you fix this blood sugar you see their mood elevates greatly so I know it’s true but of course we don’t have the studies yet so then if you have instant resistance where the insulin is not connecting the cell you’re not going to be able to absorb the amino acids that are supposed to be there to build the neurotransmitters and just that alone if you’re deficient in serotonin or dopamine or GABA look look at what that can do to your overall mood and cognitive function so both the cognitive function your focus your memory your concentration and your overall emotional state can be greatly affected by your blood sugars and that’s why Pido can be so powerful because number one it stimulates gaba which is a neurotransmitter it actually reduces inflammation in the brain and throughout the body and if you add in a minute fasting in there you can greatly improve insulin sensitivity thereby absorbing the amino acids in making the neurotransmitters again in fact intermittent fasting will cause your the regrowing of neurons you can actually build brain tissue by doing in a minute fasting and reduce the amyloid plaques involved in dementia so rather than wait for someone someday to fund this research do your own research on yourself try healthy keto and then fasting and see how it can affect your cognitive function in your overall mode
