| Features: |
| The ketogenic diet is a high-fat, moderate-protein, and very low-carbohydrate diet. The drastic reduction in carbohydrate intake aims to shift the body’s metabolism from relying primarily on glucose (sugar) for energy to using ketone bodies produced from fat metabolism. Many cancer cells predominantly rely on glucose for energy—a phenomenon known as the Warburg effect. By reducing carbohydrate intake, the KD lowers blood glucose levels, which theoretically could "starve" cancer cells of their preferred energy source. -Lowering carbohydrate intake reduces insulin levels, which may indirectly decrease insulin-like growth factor (IGF) signaling—a pathway that can promote tumor growth in some cancers. - MCT oil is rapidly metabolized in the liver to produce ketone bodies, making it a common component of ketogenic diets. |

| Type: |
| A ketogenic diet is high in fats and low in carbohydrates, which shifts the body’s metabolism to produce ketone bodies (such as β-hydroxybutyrate and acetoacetate) as an alternative energy source. The three main ketone bodies are: -Beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHB): The most abundant and commonly measured ketone in the blood. -Acetoacetate: Can be measured in both the blood and urine. -Acetone: Often measured in the breath; it is a byproduct of acetoacetate breakdown. 1. Blood Ketone Meters (accurate, fast) -Nutritional ketosis is often defined by BHB levels between 0.5 to 3.0 mmol/L. 2. Urine Ketone Strips (urine test may not accurately reflect blood levels) 3. Breath Ketone Analyzers(not always perfectly correlate with blood BHB concentrations.) |
