Ketogenic Diets for Psychiatric Disorders

Learn about the science behind ketogenic diets, and how they can help enhance therapy and outcomes for psychiatric disorders–even helping some reduce or eliminate the need for medication.

This course will introduce attendees to the exciting emerging field of metabolic psychiatry, the cornerstone of which is the ketogenic diet. Dr. Ede will review the scientific rationale for the use of ketogenic diets in psychiatric practice, address common safety concerns, describe how these diets may be applied as either an adjunctive or a standalone therapy, and summarize where the clinical science in the field currently stands. Join us to learn how this root cause intervention can help some patients avoid, reduce, or eliminate the need for psychiatric medications, and bring your questions for discussion.
