Shaweta Vasudeva
ShayTheCoach, USA
T
his oral presentation will focus on operationally defining
ketogenics, covering clinical weight loss components and
positive impacts on metabolic syndrome, a major risk factor of
obesity. It will also cover the connection of metabolic syndrome
to obesity while presenting research on the benefits of
ketogenic diets on these conditions. Ketogenic diets have been
utilized as early as the 1920’s for treatment of epileptic seizures
in children. Research now indicates the metabolic alterations
that occur within the human body during a ketogenic state
can be a beneficial and viable treatment option for obesity.
The research will highlight the works of: Cox et al. (2016),
Dashti et al. (2004); Ede (2017); Freeman, Kossoff, & Hartman
(2007); Roehl & Sewak (2017), & Volek et al. (2008) & (2016).
