Ketogenic Diet1) Definition:

• The KD is both a high-fat/low-non-fat diet, and a diet that is

calorie-restricted

• Any diet providing nutritional or body fat for the generation of

ketones that serve as an alternative fuel to body tissues may

be called “ketogenic”

2) Side effects• Usually none to only slight side effects if carried out properly

- hyperuricemia

- gout

- gallstones

3) Indication• Weight reduction under medical supervision and normal

metabolic status- age < 60 y

- BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2

Ketogenic Diet• Contraindications:

• Absolute:

- Low serum potassium

- Hyperuricemia

- Any form of renal dysfunction

- Nephrolithiasis

- Instable angina

- Myocardial infarction within the last 6 months

- Epilepsy

- Pregnancy and lactation

- Malignancies

• Relative

- certain professions

• Drivers

• Pilots

• etc.

- Eating disorders

Ketogenic Diet: Procedure

1) Thorough clinical examination:• Exclusion of contraindications

2) Evaluation of protein need• Rule of thumb: per 10 kg of target weight 10 g of protein

(may be increased)

3) Patient instruction• Basic principles

• Permitted and not permitted food

• Preparation techniques (fat- and CHO-restricted cooking)

• Possibly self control with ketone sticks

• Slow resumption of CHO after diet

4) Regular weight control in your office

5) Transition phase

Ketogenic Diet: food choice

1) Protein need based on target weight:• 10 g of biological valuable protein per 10 kg of target weight

- Dairy products

300 ml: skim milk, buttermilk, whey protein drinks

2 x 180 yogurt (preferentially skim milk yogurt)

100 g cottage cheese, tofu

50 g of 50% fat cheese

- Eggs

1 egg

- Fish

60 g of fish (any kind, preferentially lean types) or

canned fish in water

- Meat

- 50 g of lean meat (pork, beef, veal, horse, poultry,

venison)

- 30 g of dried meat

Ketogenic Diet: food choice

2) In addition to the protein a vegetable side dish for the

main course is allowed. A total of two servings per day

are allowed. They may be taken from either group.• Vegetable group 1 (1 serving = 200 g)

- Eggplant, artichoke, broccoli, cauliflower, cucumber, salt

cucumber, pepperoni, cabbage (all types), mushrooms, radish,

spinach, asparagus, tomato, chicory, onions, zucchini, celery,

fennel

• Vegetable group 2 (1 serving = 150 g)- Green beans, green lattice, dandelion, carrots, pumpkin

Low-fat Diet1) Definition:

• Any diet with a restriction of fat may be called a low-fat diet.

• Mostly a low-fat diet will also have some sort of fat-

modification.

2) Side effects• Usually none if fat restriction is not absolute

3) Indication• A modified composition of fat should be part of every healthy

nutrition. It may play a special role in- Cardiovascular disease (Mediterranean diet, PUFA-rich diets,

DASH-diet, etc) for the prevention/therapy of dyslipidemia, and

the primary and secondary prevention of arteriosclerosis

4) Contraindications:• None. Basically a fat-modified diet may be carried out at any

time without side effects or hazards to the health, as long as

the fat restriction is not too harsh (HDL-Cholesterol may

decrease, and cancer risk increase) and a healthy mix of

nutrition is maintained

Low-fat Diet: Procedure

1) Thorough clinical examination:• Evaluation of cardiovascular risk factors

• Blood lipids

• Blood pressure

2) Diet modification• Reduction of fat below 30% of total energy intake (max. 60-

70 g fat/d)

• Distribution of fat-types: SFA:MUFA:PUFA=<1:1-1.5:<1

• Cholesterol < 300 mg/d

• Avoid/reduce trans fatty acids

• Increase of fibers to ≥ 30 g/d

• Diet should be high in CHO (~ 55-60% of total energy intake)

• Avoid alcohol or strict alcohol reduction

3) Regular weight control in your office

4) Well suited as lifelong diet

Low-fat Diet: food choice

• Ask your dietitian!
