Matt Kelly explains that ketosis can temporarily help mold patients by burning fat that stores mycotoxins and starving fungi of carbs, but he recommends pairing it with binders, liver support, and frequent bowel movements to actually eliminate toxins. Long-term continuous ketosis isn't the answer; pulsed, short-term use works better.
Lady Mo is asking a question that I don't get often, and I like this. I love new questions. And she's asking, how does ketosis benefit mold patients? Is it both because it's low carb and also because mycotoxins are stored in fat which are burned off? Yeah, absolutely. Being in now, I like ketosis, but short term only. Okay. Not long term, because then you have a host of new problems. But if you get to a state of ketosis and you're melting that fat where mycotoxins are stored, make sure you're staying on binders like sludge, which goes in your water bottle, so that when you're in ketosis, you can have a constant flow of the binder going in to help grab these mycotoxins as they're being mobilized, as they're going into circulation, have some liver support so that they can process it and bile support to make sure it's getting to the intestine, and make sure you're pooping at least twice a day to maximize the elimination of the toxins that you're eliminating during ketosis. So, yeah, if you're keeping down the carbs, you're not feeding the possible fungus in your intestines if you're colonized. And the benefit of the fat dropping is getting those toxins out. So it's a double whammy. So it's good. Don't do it for too long of an extended time. Pulse it. We don't want to create new problems. Great question. Thank you.
