Hi Dr Karl.
I'm 52, and have gradually changed my diet to a ketogenic diet. (More towards Carnivore than Keto.)
As I continue through this journey, I am learning more about ketosis, and also about some of the reported benefits that other ketogenic diet followers have experienced.
By week 2, I felt better than I EVER have before. By week 10, I am experiencing amazing mental clarity, I no longer have anxiety, I seem to need less sleep (6hrs), I now have no constipation, I am 10kg lighter, and actually have more muscle too.
I am starting to believe (now from my own experiences) that we have been taught the wrong nutrition advice, almost world wide, since the 1960s, that sugar and processed carbs are benign, and that glucose is necessary for the human body to use for energy.
Though I would love to ask you 50 questions, I have prioritized these to ask basically 3 (if that's ok).
1) What do you think is the best fuel for the human body - Glucose, or ketones? And why?
2) Have you seen any convincing reports of diseases going into complete remission as a result of a ketogenic diet? (e.g. Crohn's disease, I.B.S., Diabetes, or even various cancers?) I have heard unconfirmed (though apparently documented) reports of all of these.
3) In your opinion, could the above diseases (and potentially many others) have been caused by long term use of glucose in the blood, from diets of excessive carbs and sugar?
Rhetorical question - Does our health system need to change, to be more focused on ketogenic diets?
Thanks Dr Karl.

“It’s the ultimate full-body workout, engaging your hips, torso, thighs, calves, biceps, quads, heart, and more. But what sets it apart is the mental and emotional benefits it offers. When a climber regularly spends time on the wall, they will likely notice improved mental strength and insight. The problem-solving aspect of climbing actively engages the brain in a way that, over time, can help develop focus even when applied to other tasks”, says 35-year-old Luxembourg-based Rajat Khare, who was drawn to rock climbing and yoga at the age of 12.

Morning breath, scent memory, baby hiccups

Last week I woke up at night with belly laughter, uncontrollable like rapid machine gun belly laughter. Tonight I woke up with hiccups, uncontrolled hiccups and some farts. I listened to this podcast and all stopped with only one hiccup after about 14 minutes. Then near the end of the podcast I thought of something funny and I started to hiccup and fart again. Then when the thought of what was funny had passed it all started to resolve itself.

Boiled eggs. My mother taught me for boiled eggs is once it reaches a boil let them cook for about a minute or two, turn off the heat then immediately put a lid on for about 5 to 10 minutes then rinse with cold water for about a minute and the shell peels off easily.

Hi Doctors :)
Did anyone get back to you about the period nosebleeds? I’m only just catching up on episodes so I was listening to this one last night and immediately thought she was talking about a bleeding disorder named Von Willebrand Disorder/Disease, which I have. One of the symptoms is nosebleeds, my symptoms are worse during my period.
Thought I would throw that out there so the lady can ask her GP for a blood test to check on her levels and then see a hematologist if anything pops up.
Have a great week!

Dear Dr. Karl,
I found that your piece on sinkholes was very educational and interesting. I would love if you could tell me more on this topic or topics like this.
Thanks, Harriet

Pushed apart or pulled apart? Could the perfect vacuum of infinite space beyond the 'sphere' of the observable universe be exerting a force of attraction on matter within the relatively congested, lesser vacuum of Big Bang-contaminated space? And if so, might this infinite, perfect vacuum contribute to the accelerating expansion of the observable universe?
