Dr Coy’s Nutrition

Some of Dr Coy’s recipes could be considered keto-friendly, as they are high in fat.

Dr Coy has studied popular diet trends from Paleo to Atkins, and while there are benefits to a ketogenic diet, a severe reduction of sugar and carbohydrates can have a negative impact on our performance and stress tolerance.

If almost all the calories in a diet consist of fat, like the ketogenic diet – an "extreme form" of low carb – the body does not receive enough sugar in the long run. This can reduce mental and physical performance and significantly lower stress tolerance.

However, if 70 to 80% of total calories are from fats, the ketogenic metabolism is still kickstarted.

When the body lacks sugar, as occurs with an extremely high-fat diet, the metabolism forms ketone bodies from fatty acids, which our cells use as fuel. Ketone bodies can even replace part of the brain’s sugar requirements.

Unlike a low-carb or ketogenic diet, Dr Coy recommends a diet which contains sufficient sugar to keep blood sugar and insulin levels stable – maximizing our performance – without any negative health effects from classic sugars and carbs.

Ketogenic metabolism & cancer patients

For cancer patients undergoing chemo- or radiation therapy treatment, a ketogenic metabolism can make it more difficult for the tumour cells to repair cell damage. The sugar deficiency increases the tumour cell’s sensitivity which triggers the cell’s death.

Following a strict ketogenic diet for a few days can have a positive effect on the sensitivity of tumour cells because DNA repair is dependent on the presence of Dr Coy’s sugar, ribose. Without sufficient ribose, DNA damages caused by chemo- and radiation therapy cannot be repaired. This leads to tumour cell death, making cancer therapies more effective.

However, if a patient follows a strict ketogenic diet permanently, healthy cells can also become more sensitive to cell damage and their ability to repair damage decreases. This can also accelerate the ageing process.
