Low Carb Down Under | Metabolic Mind: Baszucki Family and Neuroscientists on Keto and Metabolic Psychiatry @lowcarbdownunder | Uploaded September 2023 | Updated October 2024, 6 hours ago.
Roblox Founder and CEO David Baszucki and his wife, Jan Ellison Baszucki, share the story of how ketogenic metabolic therapy (aka ketogenic diet) resolved all bipolar symptoms for their son. After four months on the diet, their son’s 5-year battle with bipolar disorder ended and his symptoms went into remission. While medications may have saved his life, nutritional ketosis gave him his mind back. Two years later, he is thriving, with zero signs of psychiatric illness.
David and Jan shared their story as part of the first Metabolic Psychiatry retreat in Santa Barbara in May, 2022. Their family philanthropy, Baszucki Group, has launched the Metabolic Mind initiative to provide education in metabolic psychiatry. The Baszucki Brain Research Fund supports clinical trials of metabolic interventions like nutritional ketosis / ketogenic diets for mental health.
The conference brought together physicians, neuroscientists, dieticians, entrepreneurs, venture capitalists and philanthropists to build community in the emerging field of Metabolic Psychiatry. Experts discuss new approaches that have the potential to transform our understanding and treatment of mental illness.
