Dr. Dominic D’Agostino returns for his third appearance on STEM-Talk. D'Agostino, as longtime listeners know, is well-known for his research into the ketogenic diet and the physiological benefits of nutritional ketosis. Since our last conversation in 2019, a tremendous body of research has been added to the literature about the therapeutic potential of ketosis. The high-fat, low-carb ketogenic diet has been linked to advances in the treatment of Alzheimer’s, cancer, migraines, type-2 diabetes, psoriasis, sleep apnea, psychiatric disorders, traumatic brain injuries as well as a host of other diseases and disorders, which we cover in today’s interview.
In episode 14 of STEM-Talk, we talked about his development and testing of metabolic therapies involving the ketogenic diet for a wide range of diseases and conditions. In episode 87, he returned to reflect on his 10 years of research focused on the high-fat/low-carbohydrate diet.
In this interview, we talk about this latest work as well as his extensive research on hyperbaric oxygen. D'Agostino is a tenured Associate Professor in the Department of Molecular Pharmacology and Physiology at the University of South Florida Morsani. He specializes in neuroscience, molecular pharmacology, nutrition, and physiology. Dom also is our colleague and a research scientist here at IHMC.
