Dr. David Sinclair, A.O., Ph.D., professor of genetics and one of the world's leading longevity scientists breaks down the science on a recent episode of Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu.
The conversation unpacks everything from the breakthroughs his lab is making in age reversal, to the tools Dr. Sinclair uses to keep his own brain sharp. | | | | | | | Dr. Sinclair explains the emerging science around ketones and the brain.
When the conversation turned to exogenous ketones specifically, Dr. Sinclair had this to say: | | | | | | | | “We know that ketones are very good for the brain…When we're fasted for over 15 hours, ketone levels will go up...and the clarity is there. The [exogenous] ketones really help with focus, and I can mimic fasting.” | | | | Dr. David Sinclair, A.O., Ph.D. | | | | | | | | What you'll hear in this episode: | | | | • | The science of ketones and how the brain uses them for energy | | | | • | Ways that scientists are reversing aging in the lab | | | | • | How he reversed Alzheimer's in lab-grown human brains | | | | • | How AI is accelerating longevity research | | | | • | What Sinclair uses daily to stay sharp and perform at the highest level | | | | If you've ever wondered what a ketone shot can do for your mental clarity — this episode answers it. | | | | | | | | | Listen Now on
