KETO DIET IN HEALTHCARE - # 10 Low carb & Blood Pressure Medications

4/4/2018

0 Comments

 
Recently, as I've been exploring the role of an individual's diet in Integrated Psychiatry, I've seen a growing body of research to support the use of a Ketogenic-style diet to enhance brain functioning and help people achieve a healthy weight. There is additional research, which theorizes such a diet could be helpful for a number of mental health conditions from ADHD and depression to Alzheimer's Disease.

Just a few of the articles I've been looking at: 
  • Article: Long-term effects of a ketogenic diet in obese patients 
  • Article: The neuroprotective properties of calorie restriction, the ketogenic diet, and ketone bodies
  • Article: Dietary ketosis enhances memory in mild cognitive impairment​
  • Article: The antidepressant properties of the ketogenic diet​
Dr. David Unwin, a family physician in England, has been treating patients with low carb diets since 2012. He is offering this online course that will cover very practical tips for doctors, like how to effectively discuss the low-carb lifestyle with patients, how to handle medications, safety, patient motivation, etc.
