The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.
Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
I noticed that the cancer cells were not growing as rapidly as they should in the context of one two and five millimolar of beta-hydroxybutyrate which I was growing them in
if you take Keith the cancer cells and grow them in a dish without glucose and glutamine just ketones they die but normal cells don't the normal cells can survive on the ketones without the glucose and glutamine
Mice with colon cancer on a normal diet given beta-hydroxybutyrate also slowed tumor growth similar to the ketogenic diet.
So I had a few different med students replicate each other. So they could replicate it. So that gave me some confidence. And then a Ph.D. student came along, Dr. Angela Poff, who's hosting Metabolic Health Summit with... So she's now a research associate and does research among other things. And then she actually moved this to the animal model, which was ketogenic diet and hyperbaric oxygen and then later ketone supplementation. And that was a synergistic combination.
