I recommend low-carbohydrate and ketogenic diets to almost all my patients, from the general public to world-class Olympic athletes.  A huge variety of benefits can be seen, from improvements in metabolic health and reductions in joint pains to enhanced athletic performance. 

Dr Paul Mason

Dr Paul Mason obtained his medical degree with honours from the University of Sydney, and also holds degrees in Physiotherapy and Occupational Health.  He is a Specialist Sports Medicine and Exercise Physician. 

For the last two years, Dr. Mason has been applying this knowledge in treating metabolic and arthritis patients who have achieved dramatic and sustained weight loss and reductions in joint pain. 

Ketogenic Diets

While a degree of nuance is needed for specific recommendations, based on factors like general health and goals, the general principle is to reduce carbohydrates while ensuring appropriate intake of fat and protein.  This addresses the key problem of insulin resistance, which is central to many modern disease states, including cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes.

Dr Mason developed an interest in low carbohydrate diets in 2011.  Since then he has spent hundreds of hours reading and analysing the scientific literature, in particular focusing on understanding how your diet is the basis of your good health.  (71 minutes)

Public Comment: It's very strange, when I go on a Keto diet, my weight goes down, energy goes up and I NEVER crash!  However, when I follow the doctors orders (low fat higher "healthy" carbs) I feel horrible, tired all the time and I can't stay lean for ANYTHING!  It's crazy that people don't accept the fact that you must do what makes you FEEL optimized.  I don't even eat fruit anymore!
