The Ketogenic Diet in Adultsds of children on the diet, often with a gratifying response .. The diet has largely been reserved for desperately ill infants and children who had failed to respond to medical therapy. For example, in a study of 150 children who were enrolled in the diet ., mean seizure frequency was 410 seizures p

Indications and Contraindications of the Ketogenic Dietizures because antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) are easier to use and are effective in approx 70–80% of patients. The KD requires a significant commitment of time and effort by the patient, his or her family, the KD health-care team, and the institution that supports the KD program. Determining precisely

In addition, it is difficult to monitor the efficacy of the diet and predict seizure outcome. Patients usually follow the diet for up to 3 mo before deciding whether to continue with it .. Like many aspects of the KD, this 3-mo “trial period” has been set arbitrarily. There are

Insights From Neuroimaging Studies Into Ketosis and the Ketogenic Diet A large body of work in the methodology of imaging has broadened its base significantly beyond solely structural information to include regional metabolic and biochemical information. Thus, with the resurgence of interest in identifying the mechanisms underlying the clinical efficacy of the ketogen

Potential Applications of the Ketogenic Diet in Disorders Other Than Epilepsy process with the ketogenic diet (KD) may yield a wide range of effects, some potentially deleterious, others having benefits. Use of the KD in intractable epilepsy has increased the comfort level and general experience with the diet and is opening doors to potential new applications. None of these

Dietary Treatments for Epilepsy Other Than the Ketogenic Dietbest-known and most wellstudied dietary treatment for epilepsy, but it is by no means the only nutritional intervention touted to reduce seizures. As noted by Sieveking (quoted in ref. ., p. 1366), numerous food substances to cure epilepsy have been tried over the course of human history. However, a

In contrast to the sedative effects of many antiepileptic medications, the biochemical changes induced by the KD serve to enhance brain function. However, the precise mechanisms through which higher cerebral energy reserves reduce
