In this interview, Dr. Bret Scher talks with Dr. Dom D'Agostino at the Citizen Science Initiative (CoSci) conference to discuss everything from the recent screening of The Cholesterol Code documentary to the rise of N-of-1 research, the future of metabolic psychiatry, and the urgent need for nutrition education in medical schools. In this conversation, you'll learn: Dr. D'Agostino’s reaction to The Cholesterol Code documentary and what stood out most How N-of-1 citizen science is reshaping the way we think about metabolic health Why metabolic health may be a stronger predictor of cardiovascular outcomes than LDL alone How nutrition education made its way into the USF College of Medicine curriculum What the latest research is revealing about ketogenic metabolic therapy and cancer, brain health, and immune function Why metabolic psychiatry is one of the most exciting emerging fields in medicine How exogenous ketones and ketogenic diets fit into clinical practice and ongoing research This discussion offers a thoughtful look at where metabolic medicine is headed and why prioritizing whole-body health is becoming central to supporting the brain. 🎥 Watch The Cholesterol Code documentary and join the conversation shaping the future of metabolic health: amazon.com/gp/video/detail/B0GS8ZFCYN/ref=atv_dp_share_cu_r #MetabolicMind #KetogenicTherapy #FoodAsMedicine 🔎 Have questions about how to apply metabolic therapies effectively?
