What goes wrong in the brain during aging and Alzheimer’s, and which lifestyle choices could reduce the risk by 50%?

Freedom Hub co-host Frohman met Dr. Mary Newport at the Pittsburgh stop of the Patient First Coalition Healthy America conference series.

Dr. Mary is an advocate of combining a whole food, low-carbohydrate diet with ketogenic foods and supplements for healthy aging. After founding two newborn intensive care units, she practiced at the opposite end of the spectrum, providing home hospice care and health risk assessments. In 2008 she extended by several quality years the life of her husband, who had early-onset Alzheimer’s, with ketogenic nutritional interventions including coconut, MCT oil, and ketone ester that belied the misplaced concern about cholesterol and fat.

Broader adoption of ketone-generating interventions has been slowed, in part, by concerns about LDL cholesterol. But what does the evidence actually show? Dr. Newport reviewed 26 coconut oil trials and found consistent increases in HDL, decreases in triglycerides, and minimal impact on total and LDL cholesterol.

To carry on her husband’s legacy, Mary remains a fervent messenger for ketones as an alternative fuel for the brain for Alzheimer’s and other disorders. She is author of four books and an international speaker on the subject of ketones as an alternative fuel for the brain, with numerous speaking engagements throughout the USA, Canada, Mexico, Australia and many countries in Europe and Asia. Dr. Newport is a Certified Ketogenic Nutrition Specialist (CKNS) since September 2019 through the American Nutrition Association.
