Abstract
With so many fast food options, social gatherings, and cultural norms of sharing meals, the ketogenic lifestyle (as any mindful and health conscious lifestyle) can be a challenge. Therefore, this oral presentation will focus on the history of ketogenic diets, differing between their clinical use versus fad use (risks and benefits of each), implementation within a practice, and lifestyle management of a ketogenic diet (including testing options to ensure a ketogenic state has been reached and is being maintained).
