| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Optimal Protein Podcast. I'm Vanessa Spina. Hello, my friends. Welcome back to the podcast. I'm your host, Vanessa, and I am so excited for today's episode. I have the honor of having Dr. Dom Degostino join us again. He is the world's preeminent ketone scientist. And we had such a great conversation today getting |
| 0:22.6 | to talk about all of my very favorite topics, especially geeking out about ketones, the best |
| 0:30.4 | ways to approach fat loss, doing a higher protein, modified ketogenic diet, all the benefits that he uncovered in his scientific |
| 0:40.6 | research on the incredible powerful effects of ketones being in many cases more powerful than |
| 0:48.6 | incredibly expensive molecules and drugs in terms of their effect on lowering the reactive oxygen species or |
| 0:57.8 | free radicals that are produced. |
| 1:00.3 | Why being in ketosis is supportive of the mitochondria is really one of the main themes that |
| 1:06.3 | we talk about. |
| 1:07.6 | We specifically talk a lot about all the ways that ketones can help extend our longevity |
| 1:13.5 | and health span by really optimizing our mitochondria and all the specific main mechanisms that |
| 1:20.9 | ketones really help reduce pre-radical damage and get really in depth on what is happening in the mitochondria all the way from |
| 1:31.1 | the actual creation of cellular energy or ATP to uncoupling proteins where we can actually |
| 1:39.3 | uncouple energy production from heat production. It is all just so fascinating. We also got to geek out |
| 1:45.8 | about ketones, specifically blood ketones and breath ketones, how he thinks that breath ketones |
| 1:52.2 | are one of the best ways to actually measure fat burning and fat loss. If your goal is fat loss |
| 2:00.3 | with keto, if you want to improve your body composition |
| 2:03.0 | why using breath acetone and measuring breath acetone is one of the most effective tools |
| 2:08.9 | that you can use because when you are in ketosis you are actually at the highest rate of fat burning |
| 2:15.0 | so when you're testing your breath ketones like you do on the tone |
| 2:18.8 | device, the carbons that you're reading on there are actually coming from your body fat. It's just |
| 2:24.3 | so amazing. So we really got to talk about so many of my favorite topics on the episode today |
| 2:30.2 | and all of the latest research that Dr. Degasino has been doing on ketones, his opinion |
