#63 Dr. Dominic D'Agostino | Advancing Metabolic Therapies Through Ketosis and Resilience Research
Join Dr. Sandra Cammarata and Dr. Giovanni Campanile as they speak with Dr. Dominic D’Agostino, Associate Professor at the University of South Florida and research scientist at the Institute for Human and Machine Cognition (IHMC). Renowned for his work on metabolic therapies, Dr. D’Agostino has led pioneering research into how nutritional ketosis, fasting, and oxygen physiology can enhance human resilience—particularly in extreme environments like deep-sea diving and spaceflight.
With a unique focus on translational research, Dr. D’Agostino has studied the therapeutic potential of ketogenic diets and exogenous ketones in treating neurological diseases, cancer, and metabolic disorders. His work spans the lab to the real world, including collaborations with NASA, the Department of Defense, and elite military groups. This episode explores the science behind metabolic flexibility, resilience under stress, and how a shift in cellular fuel can unlock profound therapeutic benefits.
