A ketogenic diet is a high-fat, moderate-protein, and very low-carbohydrate therapeutic diet that shifts the body's primary source of energy from glucose to fat. When carbohydrate intake is significantly reduced, the liver converts fatty acids into ketone bodies, which become an alternative fuel for the brain and other tissues. This metabolic state is known as ketosis. The classical ketogenic diet generally provides about 70–80% of energy from fat, 15–20% from protein, and only 5–10% from carbohydrates. Careful planning is required to ensure adequate intake of essential nutrients, vitamins, minerals, and fluids. The ketogenic diet is primarily recommended as a medical nutrition therapy for children and adults with drug-resistant epilepsy. Ketone bodies help reduce seizure frequency in many patients who do not respond adequately
