No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This research is being conducted to see if patients diagnosed with high grade gliomas can adhere to the supplemented High-Fat Low-Carbohydrate (sHFLC) + KetoPhyt diet, and to see how this diet might affect cancer cells in the bloodstream. This diet is experimental and is not routinely prescribed for patients with high-grade gliomas. The results of this study may be used to support larger studies investigating possible anti-tumor affects of the sHFLC + KetoPhyt diet.

Supplemental High Fat Low Carbohydrate (sHFLC) + KetoPhyt

Following a screening period, subjects will adhere to the sHFLC + KetoPhyt diet for six 4-week cycles. Patients will receive dietary advice from a Registered Dietitian (RD) to allow for the design of personalized meal plans maintaining carbohydrates up to 33% of total caloric intake, and be asked to maintain a daily dietary log. To assist patients in understanding, monitoring and controlling their dietary choices to maintain a low carbohydrate diet, they will be trained and receive assistance on the use of an online tool for tracking nutrition \[Healthtrac\].
