Founder & Medical Director at New York Cosmetic Skin & Laser Surgery Center

I am a board certified dermatologist and laser surgeon, and I do a lot of tumescent liposuction for stubborn fat. My job still puts me face to face with mood and motivation. When patients feel better, they move more and stick with plans. That is the real link I see in clinic. I can review the paper and give a physician's read on tolerability, adherence, and medical risk. If you need a formal psychiatric interpretation, you should also have a psychiatrist weigh in. The study I reviewed tracked a well formulated ketogenic diet and saw depression scores drop fast. PHQ 9 fell 69% and clinician rated HRSD fell 71%. Changes showed up within 2 to 6 weeks. Participants hit nutritional ketosis 73% of measured days, and well being rose nearly threefold.
