Abstract EN

The modified Atkins diet is a less restrictive variation of the ketogenic diet.

This diet is started on an outpatient basis without a fast, allows unlimited protein and fat, and does not restrict calories or fluids.

Recent studies have shown good efficacy and tolerability of this diet in refractory epilepsy.

In this review, we discuss the use of the modified Atkins diet in refractory epilepsy.
