Tue Feb 03 2026
Dr. Mary Newport shares groundbreaking research analyzing cholesterol profiles across 40 years of studies, challenging conventional wisdom about saturated fat and heart health. We discuss her findings on MCT oil for brain health, the 288 caregiver reports showing cognitive improvements, and practical protocols for using coconut oil and ketones.
Dr. Mary Newport, physician and Alzheimer's researcher, joins us to discuss her latest research that challenges decades of assumptions about coconut oil and saturated fat. In this interview, we explore: • Her comprehensive analysis of 26 studies spanning 40 years (984 lipid profiles) showing coconut oil's unexpected effects on cholesterol • The 288 caregiver reports documenting improvements in memory, cognition, and daily function • How medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) may provide an alternative fuel source for aging brains • Practical protocols for incorporating coconut oil and MCT oil into your diet • The controversial history of dietary fat guidelines and the trans fat problem • Why the medical establishment has been slow to acknowledge ketone research Dr. Newport's work began with her husband Steve's dramatic response to coconut oil after his early-onset Alzheimer's diagnosis. Her research has since expanded to include hundreds of case reports and comprehensive lipid analysis.
