News Finding: "Should this approach prove to to have benefit beyond the period of intervention, it might be applied briefly and intermittently as a prophylactic strategy, an approach that would mitigate many concerns about chronic, severe carbohydrate restriction," they concluded.
Paper Finding: Should this approach prove to be effective and to have benefit beyond the period of intervention, it might be applied intermittently as a preventive strategy, an approach that would mitigate many concerns about chronic, severe carbohydrate restriction.
News Context: Discovering the mechanisms of neural action of the diet, including metabolic and neuroprotective factors in conjunction with neurocognitive effects, "will be of particular interest and should have implications for understanding the etiology of neurodegeneration," they write. "Should this approach prove to to have benefit beyond the period of intervention, it might be applied briefly and intermittently as a prophylactic strategy, an approach that would mitigate many concerns about chronic, severe carbohydrate restriction," they concluded. Dietary ketosis enhances memory in mild cognitive impairment.
Paper Context: Also, demonstrating and distinguishing mechanisms of neural action including metabolic changes and neuroprotective factors in conjunction with neurocognitive effects will be of particular interest and should have implications for understanding the etiology of neurodegeneration. A prominent issue will be duration of the effects and whether there is persistence of benefit beyond the period of active intervention. Should this approach prove to be effective and to have benefit beyond the period of intervention, it might be applied intermittently as a preventive strategy, an approach that would mitigate many concerns about chronic, severe carbohydrate restriction.
