    • After some challenges, he became eligible for a clinical trial for Alzheimer’s treatment. (9:00)
    • She had heard about the benefits of ketones and coconut oil and started experimenting. (12:15)
    • It’s amazing the improvements they saw in a short amount of time!
  • Vinnie mentions his battle with leukemia and how staying in ketosis has kept him in remission. (16:40)
    • Mary mentions that people with epilepsy who have been on a ketogenic diet will have reoccurrence of seizures after having just a piece of cake; consequently, this is called “Birthday Syndrome”. (20:40)
  • Vinnie asks Mary her opinion on exogenous ketone esters and salts. (25:00)
  • They discuss further the benefits of coconut oil, and Mary also started using it and feels like her mental endurance improved. (28:40)
  • Mary mentions that coconut oil got a bad rap because companies who created hydrogenated oils were competing with it and creating a negative campaign against it. (38:30)

    • Saturated fats are not the problem.
    • They chat about cholesterol, plaque, and inflammation.

CLEARLY KETO

  • They turn the conversation to Mary’s upcoming book: “Clearly Keto: For Healthy Brain Aging and Alzheimer’s Prevention“.
    • Mary lists some of the topics covered in her book from the problem of too much sugar, ketones, fasting, your brain on coconut oil, and much more.
  • Vinnie and Mary discuss various medications, how some do (and don’t) function, and how some only “keep you perfectly sick”. (55:00)
    • Vinnie talks about how he knows of cases where people were on 3 medications for one issue, but that issue could be resolved just by proper eating.
    • Mary talks about how even she at one time was unaware of how the current low-fat dietary guidelines were bad; consequently, she has changed her eating and has seen many benefits.
  • Mary also mentions a chapter in her book about overcoming insulin resistance, which can also include virgin coconut oil. (1:04:20)
    • She mentions how insulin resistance affects brain functions and other functions in the body.
