Abstract in brief

  • The ketogenic diet (KD) was originally developed in the 1920s as a treatment for epilepsy, aiming to replicate the effects of fasting.
  • The use of the KD declined with the advent of modern antiepileptic drugs, becoming limited to a few children's hospitals by the end of the 20th century.
  • In the last 15 years, there has been a significant resurgence in both the application of the KD and scientific research regarding its effectiveness for childhood epilepsy.

If "keto" seems like something brand new and a "fad diet," check yo'self! Very low-carbohydrate diets have been used in medical therapy for centuries. Read about the history of the ketogenic diet in my latest article for @ketochow.

A paper published in 2008 covering the history of the ketogenic diet quotes: "The use of the ketogenic diet has always been dependent on public perception." This paper was published years before keto really blew up. This was true back then and is ESPECIALLY true now!

@janvyjidak @Tom_Babington1 @prateekdg1 Good point - original is the wrong term since this one wasn't. I was just referring to the early ketogenic diets, and the fact that protein was restricted - the one above seems to be Peterman's work at the Mayo Clinic. https://t.co/FITJATooTa

KD first employed for the tmt. of childhood epilepsy (1921) as the body's metabolic response mimicked a fasted state. Despite success, KD fell to the advent of conventional therapy and is still used as a "next-to-last" option. Check out KD's history! https://t.co/wJ6Xp81dhY
