I have a very severe, very rare post birth defect. It's a mix between a terminal lung disease, cardiovascular problem, tendon elasticity problem and cognitive issue. Think cystic fibrosis with tachycardia, with a mix of mild dementia. The prognosis is ... shit to say the least. Some of the major problems though that have become worst over time are becoming even more apparent now. I noticed that my lungs sound horrible, and have become so reactive to the elements, i get sick close to once a week. I can barely do any exercise anymore, since that make me sick too. Sadly I know how this ends, and it ends in a corpse, and the severity of the symptoms tell me that the condition is accelerating in its decline. I could get away with being healthy looking 10 years ago, but now, its become clear my body is failing on me. The problem is its getting really hard to bullshit this disease as inconsequential at this point

You might be interested to learn how ketone metabolism is more efficient than glucose metabolism. What the fuck does that have to do with your condition? Well, most dementias are related to impaired glucose metabolism in the brain. Basically your brain is starving for energy and cells are dying because they can't get enough. Ketones produce more energy with the same blood supply, so people with circulating ketones have improved cognitive function. Also, perhaps helpful to you is ketones are more efficient everywhere in your body. People with circulating ketones have better endurance than people who do not.

It's really easy to get circulating ketones: stop eating carbohydrates and eat more fat. Basically ditch the bread, pasta, potatoes, and sugar and start eating more steak, bacon, butter, and eggs. Worst case it doesn't do anything for you, best case it changes your life.
