Eine neue Studie zeigt einen Zusammenhang zwischen 10 und 12 Wochen nach einer gut formulierten ketogenen Ernährung und einer Rücknahme der Depressionssymptome von ungefähr 70% bei einer kleinen Gruppe von Studenten. Das globale Wohlbefinden der Teilnehmer stieg um das dreifache und die Leistung bei mehreren kognitiven Aufgaben.

As someone with a lot of head trauma and been on over 20 meds for treatment resistant depression- Keto works, and shockingly fast for me. I’ve been on 4-5 meds at once with severe avolition, but if I start keto at the same time, within two days of ketosis I’m basically free of depression. It can be very powerful.
Interesting. However, it is a very small study of 16 persons. And there was no control to account for the possibility that other factors, such as the added daily attention from a team of caring people, was part or even all of the reason for the improvements.
I suspect sugar is one factor: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10851576/
Cool but who can sustain a ketogenic diet longterm? I can’t imagine going without rice, bread, potatoes, etc for the rest of my life.
