Summary

In view of the research gap in the safety of traditional ketogenic diet, there is a need for a healthy alternative to the ketogenic diet that reduces the individual's propensity to adverse diet choices. Healthy guidelines to be adopted include a diet low in saturated fat, trans fat, and sugar, along with adequate fibre. Potentially with these guidelines in effect, the associated risks for CVD would be reduced. Therefore, this study will investigate the effect of a calorie-restricted healthy ketogenic diet versus a calorie-restricted low fat diet on weight loss and metabolic outcomes among individuals with obesity.
