Metabolic Mind | The Impact of Ketosis on Cortisol Levels and Adrenal Function @metabolicmind | Uploaded October 2024 | Updated October 2024, 5 hours ago.
In this video, we delve into a hotly debated topic: Does a ketogenic diet impact cortisol levels and adrenal health? While some claim that sustained ketosis could lead to adrenal fatigue or other long-term health issues, the scientific evidence is still limited.
Join us as we explore the current research on ketosis and cortisol regulation, and discuss the mechanisms that may be at play. We’ll examine the myths, the facts, and what clinicians and researchers currently understand about this connection. If you're curious about the real impacts of ketosis on your adrenal system, this is the video for you!
🔍 What You’ll Learn:
• The relationship between ketosis, cortisol, and adrenal function
• Common misconceptions and unsupported claims
• What current data reveals (and doesn’t) about this topic
• Practical insights for those practicing or considering ketosis
Whether you’re a healthcare professional, a researcher, or simply someone interested in metabolic health, we’re here to offer clarity and insight. Don’t forget to like, subscribe, and hit the notification bell for more videos on ketogenic therapy and metabolic health!
