How Can a Ketogenic Diet Improve Motor Function?

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2018
A ketogenic diet (KD) is a normocaloric diet composed by high fat (80–90%), low carbohydrate, and low protein consumption that induces fasting-like effects. KD increases ketone body (KBs) production and its concentration in the blood, providing the brain
