Ketogenic diet
Topic
The ketogenic diet is a high-fat, adequate-protein, low-carbohydrate dietary therapy designed to force the body to burn fats rather than carbohydrates. In conventional medicine, it is primarily used to treat hard-to-control epilepsy in children, though it has also gained widespread popularity for weight loss and metabolic health.
