Study Notes
Trend Diets Overview
- Popular for weight loss and disease management
- Concerns about safety and effectiveness; lacks clinical trial evidence
Protein-Sparing Modified Fasting (PSMF) Diet
-
Description: 6-month program
- Phase 1: 1.5-3 grams of lean protein per kg body weight (without fat) daily; 20 grams of carbohydrates (non-starchy); limited fat intake (e.g., olive oil).
- Phase 2: Gradual increase in carbs to 90 grams per day, minimal fat intake.
- Pros: Supports muscle preservation.
- Cons: Highly restrictive, potential for nutritional deficiencies, possible weight regain, requires supplements (multivitamins, potassium, calcium, magnesium, sodium).
- Note: Not recommended for patients with liver, kidney, or gout issues.
Ketogenic (Keto) Diet
-
Description: Low carbohydrate, high fat diet
- Macronutrient breakdown: 75% fat, 20% protein, 5% carbohydrates.
- Pros: Shifts metabolism to fats and ketones; effective for epilepsy, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's; reduces blood sugar and insulin, appetite suppression.
- Cons: Risk of missing essential nutrients; potential for high cholesterol, requires supplements (multivitamins, minerals).
- Note: Not recommended for patients with high cholesterol/dyslipidemia.
Karatay Diet

- Pros: Targets muscle gain or fat loss effectively
- Cons: Not a balanced approach; excessive protein is potentially harmful to the liver and kidneys.
- Note: Not recommended for patients with liver, kidney, or gout issues.
Carb Cycling
- Description: Varying carbohydrate intake across days (high on workout days, low on rest); tailored to an individual plan.
Carb Loading
