Medium‐chain triglyceride (MCT) ketogenic therapy [PDF]
Epilepsia, 2008 Summary The medium‐chain triglyceride diet (MCTD) is a variant of the classic 4:1 ketogenic diet (KD) introduced in 1971 by Huttenlocher as an attempt to improve the palatability of the KD by allowing more carbohydrates yet preserving ketosis. Although initially found to be equally effective as the classic KD, use of the MCTD declined because of ...
