About this listen

Now in its seventh edition, Ketogenic Diet Therapies for Epilepsy and Other Conditions is the premier resource for anyone considering starting or already implementing a ketogenic diet for epilepsy or other medical disorder.

Coauthored by a multi-disciplinary care team from the world-renowned Johns Hopkins Hospital, this valuable reference establishes how these diets work, providing both the basics as well as advanced methods on how to start and maintain children and adults on ketogenic diets.

Written for parents, patients, dietitians, neurologists, and individuals embarking on ketogenic diets for any purpose, Ketogenic Diet Therapies brings a patient-centered approach to answering common questions related to the ketogenic, modified Atkins, and related therapeutic diets.

With useful tips and information throughout, chapters cover diet selection, provide sample meal plans and recipes, offer guidance on how to connect with local and worldwide resources, and much more to ensure success.

Revised and thoroughly updated, this edition reflects the latest pediatric and adult ketogenic recommendations with expanded sections throughout. New chapters have been added to address areas of growing importance and popularity, such as the new modified ketogenic diet, the gut microbiome, infants and the diet, using diets for adults, exogenous ketones, and diets for conditions other than epilepsy with additional coverage of diabetes and obesity.

As the go-to text on ketogenic diets over the course of seven editions, this book continues its mission of preparing patients, families, and professionals for the ketogenic journey ahead.

This essential book will help you:

  • Understand how to start and use any of the five major ketogenic diets
  • Fine-tune the diets to meet individual needs
  • Develop and prepare tasty and healthy ketogenic meals
  • Navigate the real world of school, family, and friends with confidence
  • Learn about the latest research on the diet for use in infants, children, and adults

Missing some very important information

Missing several important points and makes some really terrible recommendations. For example:
In their list of fats, they list mayonnaise as a fat. Mayonnaise often has oxidated oil, glucose from sugar and protein from eggs. In their list of low glycemic fruits, they include mango, but never speak of avocado. They mention that in studies women have been found to have menstruation dysregulation, but never mention the reason and how to fix that. They say that MCT can cause an upset stomach, but there’s no information about why and how to build your amount slowly overtime so that you can tolerate therapeutic amounts. I could go on and on there are so many holes in this information. Makes me feel sad that people who are dealing with epilepsy are going to go to this book for education. After reading this book, please look further to get more educated. Please understand the difference between healthy and unhealthy fats that cause a long list of problems and get a better list of low glycemic fruits and vegetables for starters. So much more could be said here…

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
