Shaping the human metabolome: the impact of a ketogenic diet LMU_Muenchen ketodiet ketogenic ketogenicdiet diet microbiome metabolome
By Bhavana KunkalikarJun 6 2023Reviewed by Lily Ramsey, LLM In a recent study published in the Clinical Nutrition Journal, researchers explored how the human metabolic fingerprint changes with a ketogenic diet .
About the study In the present study, researchers explored the alterations in the metabolome of healthy individuals after a KD. Volunteers followed a WD before enrolling. The KD involves limiting carbohydrate intake to 10% of daily caloric intake while increasing the proportion of fats and proteins. Results During the three-week diet, healthy volunteers followed the KD and were able to produce ketone bodies as expected. No unintended effects or adverse events were observed. The participants experienced a slight weight loss throughout the diet, with a median reduction in body mass index of 0.69 kg/m2, which translates to a 2.9% decrease.
Furthermore, the serum urea concentration was increased in individuals following a KD. No significant associations were found in the correlation analysis, indicating that the changes observed were not linked to weight loss.

Researchers use new deep learning approach to enable analysis of electrocardiograms as languageMount Sinai researchers have developed an innovative artificial intelligence (AI) model for electrocardiogram (ECG) analysis that allows for the interpretation of ECGs as language. This approach can enhance the accuracy and effectiveness of ECG-related diagnoses, especially for cardiac conditions where limited data is available on which to train.
