@carlsonbjj@gooner14 Unfortunately I can’t access the full article. I do know that beta-hydroxybutyrate, a ketone body that can be formed during ketosis or from MCTs, improves cognition in people with Alzheimer’s. However, the two separate studies that demonstrated this found that the improvement was entirely dependent on APOE status. Those with one apoe4 allele showed no benefit from the beta-hydroxybutyrate.
Thanks for looking to reach out! I try to reply to every single email I get (really!), but sometimes it takes a little while or some messages just fall through the cracks, usually by accident.

If coconut has potent anti-bacterial properties, could continuous consumption disrupt beneficial gut flora?
I’ve only seen studies where it kills pathogenic bacteria but now I have to know why!
