Objective
The aim of this study was to investigate whether the modified Atkins diet (MAD), a variant of the ketogenic diet, has an impact on bone‐ and calcium (Ca) metabolism.
Methods
Two groups of adult patients with pharmacoresistant epilepsy were investigated. One, the diet group (n = 53), was treated with MAD for 12 weeks, whereas the other, the reference group (n = 28), stayed on their habitual...
Objective
The aim was to examine the influence of modified Atkins diet on serum concentration of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs).
Methods
Prospective data from 63 adult patients with either focal or generalized drug‐resistant epilepsy recruited to 12‐week dietary treatment as add‐on to AEDs are analyzed. AED serum concentrations, ketones, glucose, and hemoglobin A1c were measured before and after the...
Objective
Ketogenic diets reduce seizures in children with drug‐resistant epilepsy. Whether adults benefit from similar treatment has not been clarified. We therefore examined the efficacy of the modified Atkins diet in adults with drug‐resistant focal epilepsy.
Methods
We performed a randomized clinical trial (RCT) with patients >16 years who had at least 3 seizures per month despite having...
