Those who worked closest with him held him in highest esteem. Perhaps this was because Dr. Veech understood biochemistry from a different perspective, one that was not taught in books. Rather one that came from having one’s work guided by annual reviews and direction from Hans Krebs, Albert Lehninger and others of that stature. Tribute written by his friend, William Curtis.
Read MoreThe ketogenic diet and ketone supplements have the ability to lower blood glucose levels, but the effects differ depending on type of ketone supplement, duration of treatment administration, whether in rested and post-exercise states, age, and disease pathology. Read our latest publication for more details about this important topic.
Read MoreAs NASA prepares to land on the Moon in the next couple years, more knowledge is needed to determine how the human body can handle such an extreme environment. The NASA Extreme Environment Mission Operation (NEEMO) is a space analog mission, which took place for the 23rd time in Florida from June 13th until 21st 2019 to simulate space exploration, especially focusing on future lunar missions.
Read MoreIn a recent review by Paoli et al., they summarize some of the research pertaining to how the ketogenic diet may alter the gut microbiome. Read our blog if you want to learn about gut microbiome and what the new study found.
Read MoreGlucose is the predominant fuel for the brain, but cannot supply adequate fuel to the AD brain, putting the brain at risk for starvation and exhaustion. However, when ketones become available, the brain will preferentially take up and utilize them as fuel, even in the presence of glucose.
Read MoreThe current treatment protocol for type 2 diabetic patients admitted to the hospital largely ignores the more current and progressive understanding of the underlying pathological process that leads to the development of the disease. Current management does not consider recent advances in metabolic research.
Read MoreWe tested Space Shake, a high-fat meal replacement, creamer, drink. See what we found!
Read MoreIt is no secret that there is a lot of interest around the ketogenic diet for weight loss. Entering and sustaining ketosis, however, is no walk in the park.
Read MoreMigraine is not simply a “bad headache”, it is a in fact a neurological disorder and can be extremely debilitating, ultimately affecting quality of life. There is an increasing amount of evidence suggesting migraine is a response to brain energy deficiency or oxidative stress levels that exceed antioxidant capacity.
Read MoreIn a recent review paper, inflammation-mediated muscle wasting is highlighted, as it is known that inflammation and oxidative stress pathologically underpin and drive muscle wasting.
Read MoreWe discuss our recent publication showing that ketone supplemented food significantly decreased the lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammation and consequently decreased seizure activity.
