**Selected for Doody's Core Titles® 2024 in Nutrition** Ketogenic: The Science of Therapeutic Carbohydrate Restriction in Human Health presents the most up-to-date and evidence-based science and research available in the field of TCR, with the purpose of training medical and allied healthcare professionals on the effective therapeutic use of low-carbohydrate and ketogenic nutrition in clinical practice. This book explores the appropriate, safe, and effective use of TCR to improve patient outcomes in a broad range of chronic metabolic conditions and aims to promote health.

Focused on lifestyle management, health support and the treatment of diseases rooted in poor nutrition, this book explores the role of food and lifestyle modification as medicine and is a valuable resource for nutritionists, dietitians and medical professionals who provide diet-related counselling, as well as those researching or studying related areas.

Presents new best-practice guidelines for using TCR to treat, improve or reverse nutrition-related metabolic conditions and diseases that were previously thought to have a chronic, irreversible progression
Provides an overview of the most recent evidence outlining the biochemistry and physiology pertaining to human nutrition and health
Offers evolutionary and historical context to human nutrition
Contains clinical practice guidelines for the implementation of TCR from medical practitioners who prescribe TCR in their practices, allowing readers to understand real-life concerns in the field
Features case studies that provide practical examples of how to assess, monitor and intervene with patients that practitioners encounter in their practices
Explains the physiology and biochemistry of the normal and pathophysiological state for each condition and links these to the application of TCR
