About This Webinar:

Join us to learn how to define the ketogenic diet, discuss its role in the treatment of chronic disease and review strategies for streamlining sessions with patients interested in this diet.

The ketogenic (keto) diet is becoming more and more popular, so it’s not surprising that this is one of our most requested topics! You might be getting questions from clients, patients, and friends as to how safe the keto diet or lifestyle is. In this webinar you’ll learn more about the ketogenic diet, including the indications of a ketogenic diet.

Learning Objectives:

  • Define the ketogenic diet using language and protocols outlined in the standard of care for epilepsy.
  • Discuss the science behind the ketogenic diet’s role in the treatment of chronic disease (i.e. obesity and type II diabetes) as well as athletic performance.
  • Explore strategies to streamline sessions with patients interested in ketogenic diet.
