Electrical Control in Neurons by the Ketogenic Diet

Electrical Control in Neurons by the Ketogenic Diet

The ketogenic diet is used as a diet treatment for drug-resistant epilepsy, but there are no antiepileptic drugs based on the ketogenic diet. The ketogenic diet changes energy metabolites (ketone bodies, glucose and lactate) in the brain, which consequently changes electrical activities in neurons a...
