In our medical practice, we would use intermittent fasting as part of a comprehensive medical plan to increase longevity. There are studies which demonstrate this is beneficial, at least in Macaque monkeys. Weight loss was just a nice side effect.
• As people get older, their brain connections start to break down faster in midlife (around 40–60 years) because brain cells don’t use sugar as well.
• Giving the brain a different fuel called ketones can help keep those connections strong during this middle‐age window.
• This suggests that helping the brain get fuel in midlife could keep it healthier and slow down memory problems later on.
You can ingest ketones on their own (generally expensive supplements), but this article is more interesting in that a ketogenic diet (very low carbs) may have similar benefits.
I’m a technical founder and would be happy to chat. Glad to try to point you to the next step, give a big picture overview of technical requirements, and possibly even be involved if we are a good match. Feel free to drop me a line [email protected]
