  1. Mitochondria in the heart, skeletal muscle, kidney, and liver of individuals with Type 2 diabetes or with fatty liver disease have a diminished ability to produce energy from ketone bodies.

  6. "Unlike #glucose, #ketones effectively stabilized deteriorating brain networks, but with effects that differed significantly across critical transition points. Ketones showed moderate benefits in young adults (20-39 years), showed maximum benefits during the midlife “metabolic stress” period (40-59 years) after which networks begin destabilizing, but had diminished impact in older adults (60-79 years) once the network destabilization hit maximum acceleration and the domination of compounding vascular effects.

    Mujica-Parodi and co-authors say that these findings could revolutionize approaches to preventing age-related cognitive decline and neurodegenerative diseases like #Alzheimer’s."

  7. Glucose metabolism constitutes most of energy metabolism but the liver breaks down fat into Acetyl-CoA to create usable energy w/ #ketones as byproducts. Ketones are essential when glucose isn’t available in growing babies as well as fully developed adults.

    Neuroscientists studying #LongCovid brain fog say it’s cerebral hypometabolism, among other things, causing it.

    One interesting thing about the brain is it improves its metabolic uptake in periods of fasting or starvation.
