lüll History of the ketogenic diet Wheless JWEpilepsia 2008[Nov]; 49 Suppl 8 (ä): 3-5Fasting and other dietary regimens have been used to treat epilepsy since at least 500 BC. To mimic the metabolism of fasting, the ketogenic diet (KD) was introduced by modern physicians as a treatment for epilepsy in the 1920s. For two decades this therapy was widely used, but with the modern era of antiepileptic drug treatment its use declined dramatically. By the end of the twentieth century this therapy was available in only a small number of children's hospitals. Over the past 15 years, there has been an explosion in the use, and scientific interest in the KD. This review traces the history of one of the most effective treatments for childhood epilepsy.|Animals[MESH]|Diet, Ketogenic/*history[MESH]|History, 15th Century[MESH]|History, 16th Century[MESH]|History, 17th Century[MESH]|History, 18th Century[MESH]|History, 19th Century[MESH]|History, 20th Century[MESH]|History, Ancient[MESH]|History, Medieval[MESH] |
