Episode 196: Dominic D’Agostino Discusses Advances in Ketogenic Metabolic Therapy and Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy
In this episode, Dr. Dominic D’Agostino updates listeners on his work advancing ketone metabolic therapy (KMT) and hyperbaric oxygen therapy for traumatic brain injury. He explains KMT as a personalized, biomarker‑driven approach that induces therapeutic ketosis through diet, fasting, or exogenous ketones, positioning it as an adjuvant to cancer treatments, especially glioblastoma, and outlines a new clinical research framework that ties glucose‑ketone indices to outcomes. D’Agostino also discusses the mitochondrial stem‑cell connection theory, a hybrid orthomolecular protocol targeting mitochondrial dysfunction in cancer, and stresses the importance of patient education to prevent misinformation.
