A new study demonstrated a ketogenic diet lowers blood pressure better than the commonly recommended DASH diet. But the reaction to this study likely highlights the stigma and bias against keto diets, and it’s unlikely clinical practice will change despite the clear benefit to therapeutic nutritional ketosis.

Studies like this should help us understand the clear indications for nutritional ketosis for hypertension and type 2 diabetes. We also believe therapeutic ketosis has a role in treating serious mental illness.
