#05 - Dom D’Agostino, Ph.D.: ketosis, n=1, exogenous ketones, HBOT, seizures, and cancer
Peter Attia MD
A glycolytic inhibitor described as being 'the ketogenic diet in a drug' due to its ability to inhibit glycolysis. It is being studied in phase 2 cancer trials and epilepsy. It inhibits the pentose phosphate pathway, making cancer cells more vulnerable to oxidative stress.
