Definition:Applies to a sign or symptom that is improved or made more bearable by following a ketogenic diet.
Comment:The ketogenic diet is a method of nutrition leading to the increased production of ketone bodies (beta-hydroxybutyrate, acetoacetate and acetone) in the organism and, thus, to a condition of ketosis. This effect comes about by obtaining the greatest energy share from fats and minimizing the consumption of carbohydrates.
Synonyms:exact_synonym: Ketogenic diet improves symptoms
