O knihe

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 multidisciplinary
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
