EP07: The Magic of MCTs and Ketosis with Dr. Mary Newport


Listen Later

So much of what our body needs is sitting right in front of us, if we can expand our understanding to see it. And if you could buy more time with your loved ones, heal your brain or reach a higher version of yourself, with just one or two common materials - wouldn't you?

Dr. Mary Newport spent over 30 years cultivating a long, successful career as a newborn intensive care specialist neonatologist - but her world came to a screeching halt when her husband developed early-onset Alzheimer's. Over the course of their battle with the disease, Dr. Mary and her husband discovered ketones, and specifically, coconut and MCT oils. As they produced awe-inspiring results in her husband, Dr. Newport resolved to continue her own learning and spread the word. She has since written multiple works on the subject and continues to be a positive, educational and impactful voice in the keto community and beyond.

On this episode of More with Mandy, Dr. Mary and Mandy dig into how the battle that Dr. Mary's husband fought with Alzheimer's (and how tremendously coconut oil helped him) inspired her to spread the word about ketones' healing power, the process of translating book learning to life-changing practice, and ways to incorporate keto practices into your lifestyle to access your best, healthiest self. Listen in for a new understanding of how keto can transform both your body and your future.
