The ketogenic diet is high in fat with great protein low carbs and used to treat epilepsy in children.
I
the diet makes the body burn fats rather than the carbs.
Oh wow! I've heard of that before. I hit enter too soon before, sorry. Is it a healthy way to lose weight then? 
The ketone bodies passinto the brain and take over the glucose as the energy component.
That doesn't sound as good....bodies passing into my brain doesn't sound good. Maybe ketogenic is not as healthy as it seems? Or best for some specific groups of people?
WHen there is an elavated level of ketone bodies in the blod stream an occurence known as ketosis leads to a state known to reduce epilepsy seizures.
That would be really good for someone with seizures. I don't suffer from seizures though. Is there anything else I should know about a ketogenic diet?
