INTRODUCTION TO NUTRITIONAL KETOSIS
AND CLINICAL APPLICATIONS
1. Review the concept of ketogenesis, nutritional ketosis, and keto-adaptation
2. Discuss potential avenues for ketogenic diets in clinical practice
3. Learn about the potential for ketogenic approaches in exercise and physical performance
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Principle of Human
Carbohydrate Intolerance
Stems from >2 million years of evolution when most
humans had limited exposure to sugars/starches
Now that carb-based foods are ubiquitous, most of us
show signs of metabolic dysfunction
For a few, a modest ↓ carbs suffices to prevent overt
illness
But in many, metabolic correction requires greater
carb restriction that results in KETO-ADAPTATION

Ketone Terminology
Ketosis Hepatically-derived energy containing substances derived from
fatty acids that provide fuel to nearly every cell in the body
Nutritional
Ketosis
Process of accelerating production of ketones through restriction of
carbohydrate
Keto-
Acidosis A dangerous side effect of Type I diabetes
Keto-
Adaptation A health-promoting process of shifting to using predominately fat

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
The scientific consensus is such that diabetes
is a chronic disease that is irreversible.
1 in 4: Americans >65 yr w/ diabetes
“…the prevalence of prediabetes
was 37% to 38% in the overall
population, and consequently
49% to 52% of the population
was estimated to have either
diabetes or prediabetes.”

“I switched to a low-carbohydrate/high-fat lifestyle
in 202 and was able to win back to back 100 mile
races one week apart including setting a course
record. The diet has transformed my health and

SUMMARY
1. Ketosis & keto-adaption are natural, if not
preferred, metabolic states for humans
2. Sustained restriction of carbs to achieve
nutritional ketosis results in a shift from an
insulin-resistant (unhealthy) to a keto-
adapted (healthy) phenotype
3. Because it gets at the root cause, keto-
adaptation has broad applications for
managing disease & promoting health
