Abstract

Adherence to the ketogenic diet, a high-fat, low-carbohydrate diet, is crucial for its success in managing conditions such as epilepsy, obesity, and diabetes. Capillary blood ketone body testing has emerged as a valuable tool to monitor adherence to the ketogenic diet. This essay explores the use of capillary blood ketone body testing to detect adherence to the ketogenic diet, discusses its methodology, results, and implications, and concludes with recommendations for further research in this area.
